    Old coins give archaeologists clues about ancient civilizations
    and famous people at different times in history. What will our
    coins tell future scientists about us? Let’s make a coin rubbing
    and find out.

    ,
    WHAT YOU LL NEED
    • One penny
    • One nickel
    • One dime
    • One quarter
    • Coins from other countries, if you have them
    • Pencil
    • Thin white paper

    WHAT TO DO
    1 Lay the penny, nickel, dime and quarter face up on a table or desk.

    2 Put a piece of thin white paper over them.

    3 Take a pencil and rub the side of the sharpened tip back and forth over
    each coin, until you can see the imprint. How are they the same? How
    are they different? What can you learn about a country and its people
    from its coins?
