The Lydians invented the coin around 500 BC
Second Century BCE.
Post a new question including the date on the coin and the denomination. Greece has had a very long history and a Greek coin could mean anything from a tetradrachm minted in 400 BC or a modern Greek Euro coin minted just yesterday.
Please take another look at your coin. The date can't be correct for at least 4 reasons:The use of BC and AD didn't happen till hundreds of years later.ANY coin with "BC" on it is a fake because before Christ was born no one knew it was "BC"."BC" is an English abbreviation and English didn't even start forming until the 1100s.
If the coin is dated "4 BC" it's a big-time fake. "BC" means "Before Christ" so no one would have known beforehand about Jesus to date a coin based on his birth.
It was the 2nd century BC.
What makes it fake is the date, the BC part.Because if the coin was really made in 55 BC, then Jesus Christ wasn't born yet. Then how could they say that they made it 55 years before Christ was born when they didn't know when he was going to be born?
