Coins were made by people using simple tools. Imagine pressing a hot metal ball into a mold, just like pressing cookies in a cookie sheet! The mold gave the coin its round shape, and when it cooled down, it was ready to be used as money. This was how coins got their shapes long ago.
Examples
- A child presses a warm cookie into a round mold, just like ancient people made coins.
- Imagine pressing a hot metal ball into a shaped container, it comes out perfectly round, like a coin.
- When you flatten a piece of clay in a circular mold, it becomes a perfect circle, that's how early coins were made.
