The reading and the lecture are both about silver coin found in the state of Main in the United States, which possibly was brought there by the European explorers. The author of the reading believes that this coin is fake. The lecturer casts doubt on the claims made in the article because she believes it is genuine.
To begin with, the author points out that the coin was discovered far from the territory Norse people were in America. This point is challenged by the lecturer. She thinks that Norse came to North America not only for coins. Furthermore, she argues that Norse bring coins with them and then traveled back to home.
Secondly, the author contends that there were more coins and probably of that it is nothing to do with the Norse community. The lecturer rebuts this argument. She suggests that Norse traveled to America to find a treasure and, in the end, took everything with them.
Finally, the author states that Norse people knew that silver coins had no price in North America and, hence, they do not likely needed that money. The lecturer, on the other hand, posits that Norse was taking anything they found interesting. She puts forth the idea that silver coins may be used as the jewelry and, as a result, this coin is authentic.
