The Romans never used salt as coins. The Romans always used metals for their coins right from the beginning. It was said that in the earlier days of Rome sometimes the Roman soldiers were paid with salt at times of war. This was because salt was a very important commodity. It was the only known food preservative. Sometimes during wars the prices of salt shot up and the soldiers were given salt to send to their relatives. Not all modern historians agree with this as some think that it was not true.
