Coins become old when they’ve been used a lot or are very old. New coins are shiny and just made. When you use a coin in the store, it gets worn down over time, that’s how we know it's old.
Examples
- A new coin looks shiny like a chocolate bar, while an old one feels rough like sandpaper.
- You can tell a coin is old if it has holes or dents from being used many times.
- New coins are often found in change from the vending machine, and old ones live at the bottom of your piggy bank.
