Coin money in every society allows consumers (buyers) to spend a fraction of a dollar (or whatever the base currency is in each country). This allows for a wide range of pricing of goods. As an example in the US, without a breakdown of the dollar, every item would have a base price of $1.00 (or multiples of 1).

Did the roman coins influenced the United States to use the coins?

No. For one thing the Roman were not the only ancient people who issued coins. In fact when they introduced their coins, which was quite late, they copied the Greek's use of coinage. Moreover, coins have been used ever since by the many states of Europe. Having coins (and banknotes, since they were introduced) is part of the monetary economy. The US introduced coins because it had a monetary economy. The Americans were using coins before independence. They used British coins. When they became independent, it was only natural that they issued their own coins.
