Both the reading and the listening passages focus on a topic about European silver coins minted in the eleventh century which were discovered in the state of Maine in the North of America. While the reading tries to explain why the story about bringing the coins to the United States was a historical fake, the listening puts forward many very convincing arguments to show this is not true and these coins are genuine historical evidence.
First, according to the text, the distance between Maine, at which coins were discovered, is very far from the North America. However, the professor casts doubt about this by indicating this fact that many other objects were founded by archaeologists were in long distance from the North America. Moreover, she says that many of Native American were so interested to find objects during their travelling.
Second, the article argues that because no other coins have been discovered at Norse habitation in the States, thus they did not bring them to the North America with themselves. Conversely, the speaker rejects that claim and says it might be quite possible when Norse packed up to come back to Europe they bring them back because they were very valuable.
Third, as mentioned in the text, these silver coins would probably be useless to the Norse when they came into the North America. Nevertheless, the lecturer makes it clear that these coins were valuable and also very appealing. Therefore, if they had not function similar to the today money, coins may be have used in producing necklaces or other type of jewelries.
