The article states that the coin that was found at the Native American site is not genuine. The professor, in the lecture, explains that a lot of archaeologist believed that this coin is not fake and refutes each of the author's reason.
First, the reading claim that due to the great distance between the places where the coin was discovered and the Norse settlements, the coin is not authentic. However, the professor argues that there are many historical objects that have been found far from their expected places. In addition, he says that Native American was interested in far away things. Hence, it's completely possible that this coin was genuine.
Second, the reading passage says no body have found any other coins like that in the Canadian sites where the Norse inhabited there. The professor counter this point by stating that when the Norse came back to the Europe, they had packed all of their valuable possession. Therefore, as the silver coin was a valuable for the Norse people, They absolutely took all of them.
Third, the reading makes the argumentation that because North American did not consider silver coins as money, the Norse didn't carry them when they travel to the North America. The professor refutes this claims by pointing out that silver was very appealing for any people and they can use them in the jewelries. Thus, the Norse may be carry this silver coin to trade with American people.
