Some of the first coins were enor- mous, the idea'apparently being to dis- courage the greedy from attempting to accumulate. and carry around too many of them, - There were copper coins as large as dinner plates. This inconvenient style had to give way to the demand for smaller and more con- venient forms of currency, and the giant pennies soon dwindled in size to meet the popular demand. ; The earliest trace of the use of gold as money is to be found in the pic- tures of the ancient Egyptians weigh: ing in scales heaps of rings-of the precious metals.
