Holt investigates the history of money in the form of coinage and the discipline that studies it, highlighting his incredible knowledge of money from the ancient world to the world of today. Professor Holt is with us to look at the new book and why coins aren't going away any time soon, despite the fact Americans alone throw away 60 million dollars' worth of them each year.
