In 1957 a European silver coin dating to the eleventh century was discovered at a Native American archaeological site in the state of Maine in the United States. Many people believed the coin had been originally brought to North America by European explor

With the contrast of the reading passage, which emphasizes that coin found in Native America is a fake thing for misleading them, the professor in her lecture says that this news is not fake. He casts doubt each and every point made by text to bolster their position.

First of all, the reading passage claims that there was no opportunity to travel a great distance from Norse to America. On the other hand, the speaker rebuts this point because without coin, they have found many objects in Native America which were originated far away from this place, so it might be helpful to understand that distance is not a big issue for them that time. Moreover, there is a huge possibility that Native American could reach that place and carried a coin with them while returning their home.

Secondly, according to text, it is true that there was no use of coin which will support this coin issue. However, the professor negates this by saying maybe Norse came to America with no wish of permanent settlement. Thus, when they had backed to their country, packed all their valuable things. Consequently, archaeologists found a few coins instead of many.

Thirdly, the reading passage describes that in Native America there was no use of such coin. Meanwhile, the professor refutes this evidence because American were not used money as we do now. It might be very appealing to them for its beauty. Additionally, they could use it as ornaments and found this could interesting.

As a result, all above-mentioned evidence is provided by the professor enough to cancel the text claims.
