题主发的这段话应该是网络上拼凑出来的，有很多错误。以下是搜到的原文：

Gold and silver originally being in lumps, nuggets and bars, were in this manner weighed out in the making of payments for commercial transactions, but there being no certainty of the purity ofthe metal, no convenience in size, the lumps being too large, necessity arose for smaller amounts and divisions, which were gradually made, vouched for, and a die stamp invented which was punched by hand on one side of the smaller lumps of gold and silver, thereby attesting to its purity and value, and so originated the first acts of coinage, which is generally attributed far back in ancient history to Lydia, a country in Asia Minor, celebrated for its mineral wealth and gold,where probably the first gold states were thus stamped with the symbol of a lion pressed on one side of the coin. 

你再看一下，如果还有疑问可继续追问。
