The value of a coin in 200 BC would depend on its denomination, such as an as, denarius, etc. just as our coins today depend on their denominations, such as a penny, dime, quarter, etc. If you mean how much the coin would be worth today, it would depend on its condition and rarity.
Well, any antique coin-especially one with Alexander the Great on it-would cost well over $200. But here's a way to tell if it's fake: if it has 300 BC on it, it means it's fake. Just think about it-how could it be real if they wrote 300 Before Christ on it, when they didn't even know that Christ would be?
The following is my opinion: As a numismatic collectible coin it has no value, but as a historical item it may have some, especially if the date is stamped on the coin 11 days before the event of 9-11-2001 and the coin is a 2001 Lincoln cent. As to value, likely not much unless you find someone that wants it.
the value would probbally be pretty expensive because it would be considered an antique
A French coin worth 3 deniers would be a low-value coin from the medieval period. Deniers were the primary currency in France during that time, and a coin worth 3 deniers would have been of small denomination, typically made of copper or silver. The exact value in modern terms would be difficult to determine as it would depend on various factors such as the condition and rarity of the coin.
You can check out information on your coin at your local library or on the Internet. A coin dealer is another source, but you should do some homework on the Internet to get an idea of its value before going to a dealer, especially if you're thinking of selling the coin. A dealer will never give you the full market price of the coin, as he/she is in business to make a profit, not break even. If your coin is, for example, a silver dime, just type in coins/dimes in your browser and you'll get several sites that can help you. The same goes for any other coin. Use the coin/ name of coin.
No such coin would exist or could exist. BC and AD were only used in AD because of the fact that no one knew 600 years before Christ that Christ would be born in 600 years. Before Christ's birth, years were counted by how long a monarch had reigned. For example, something might have taken place in the 4th year of King ____'s reign.
CORRECT ANSWER: No. It is a fake. How would anyone be able to stamp a coin with BC on it, without knowing that Christ would be born in 72 years. The term BC, or "Before Christ" is now commonly called BCE for "Before Common Era."
It means it's a fake!!!! How would anyone who lived before the birth of Jesus know how many years it would be till He was born? And how could they have spoken English to use the abbreviation "BC" (before Christ) on a coin?
No coin can hold a date containing BC(Before Christ), since 200 years bc no one knew that Christ would be born 200 years after. if the coin had said 200Ad it might have been genuine
Nope, no, never, not possible. How would anyone have known how far in the future Jesus was to be born? And given that there were no Christians at the time, why would anyone have honored Him with a coin?
No. The concept of BC (Before Christ) as used in dates, only became relevant after the birth of Christ.
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.
Absolutely not, they did not know 87 years in advance that Christ was going to be born.
It is important to verify the authenticity of the coins and the dating method used by the archaeologist. Gold coins from 46 BC could be historically significant and valuable, but further research and expert assessment would be needed to confirm their origin and age.

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?
