The denarius (plural denarii) was the Roman penny, originally a piece of silver a little larger than a dime (around 5 grams). Its name became the basis of the word for "money" in several languages (e.g., Spanish: dinero; Arabic: dinar); many others used the word for silver (e.g., French: argent) with the same intent. The British "pound sterling" used to be divided into 240 pence, which were abbreviated 'd' for denarius. (The original denarius was debased to cheat on its silver content, eventually becoming devoid of silver entirely.)
One hundred denarii is an ancient Roman currency amounting to 100 silver coins. The denarius was a standard silver coin used in Rome and was typically equivalent to a day's wage for a laborer during the early Roman Empire. Thus, one hundred denarii could be seen as a substantial sum, roughly equal to several weeks' worth of wages for a common worker. The exact value in modern currency can vary significantly based on historical context and economic factors.
A denarius was one day's pay, so 100 denarii was equal to 100 day's pay.
if a silver dollar is 90% silver it would take 1 and 1/10th silver dollars to make an ounce of silver
One 1964 or earlier silver quarter= 0.1808 of an ounce of silver. So, it takes about 6 90% silver quarters to make one ounce of silver. 6 silver quarters= 1.0851 ounces.
35.27 ounces.

A denarius is a silver coin a little larger and heavier than an American dime. A denarius was equal to one day's wage. A talent wasn't a coin, but a measure. It was between 65 and 95 U.S. pounds. So, the question is - How many dime sized silver coins could be made for a 65 to 95 block of silver?
The price of sandals fluctuated. They could cost as little as one or two denarii for used sandals, all the way up to the empress's' sandals which could be jewel encrusted and be worth hundreds.

A one kilogram piece of silver bullion will fetch around $638.51 in U.S. dollars according to the website 24hGold. It will be good to hold onto if you have a piece, because the price of silver tends to go up.
Modern American Eagle coins have their purity displayed right on the back of each piece. It's one ounce of 999 fine silver. Don't confuse modern eagle coins with older circulating silver coins that incorporate many of the same design elements. For those you have to know what date and denomination of coin you have.
I assume you are asking "why doesn't one piece of silver stick to another piece of silver?" This actually a very interesting question, because, despite what you have observed, one piece of silver will stick to another piece of silver, but only in a vacuum. In a pure vacuum you could take a hunk of silver, cleave it apart, then fuse those pieces back to together simply by having them make contact. However, outside of a vacuum, the silver gets bits of dirt, grease, oil, and other contaminants on it. Even if you could clean all the visible dirt off, there would always be a layer of water, oxyen, and other molecules that collects on the pieces of silver preventing the silver atoms from fully coming into contact with each other. (Not that the atoms every actually make contact, but i feel the description is close enough) This is true with not just silver, but many other metals and materials.
It is actually quite difficult to know an exact price of a Roman brooch during Hadrian's reign. However, one can speculate based on what we know about exchange rates during that time period. A typical bronze brooch would have likely been rather cheap, around 1 or 2 denarii. However, the price would have jumped up over 25 denarii for a silver brooch, and a gold would have been reserved for the select few at over 600 denarii.
