[Bersault2000]

A monopoly $10mil bill.

[icestar302]

not a cent, if they can be found in egypt, then go get one urself!

*looks at answer*

well...i got it...but for the wrong reason

[ClutchxNuKe]

they didnt know it was bc because christ hadnt been born yet

[marcdepuma]

I can't believe you put such a simple riddle up as a "I dare you to solve this riddle" riddle. Obviously a coined minted before the time of Christ [BC] could NOT have BC on it.

[101kkrocks]

I GOT IT RIGHT THESE R EASY

[pencartinaproductoin]

if animals were eating in this vid it would sound lik

NUM NUM NUM NUM NUM NUMM NUM NUM NUMMN NUM NUMN NUM NUMN UMN NUM NUM NUM NUM NUM NUMM

[Mrpastry909]

Why would they write "BC" on a coin?

[Enchanter338]

My question is "Who makes a shovel like that??" 0:19

[mryoubar]

Dear god, everyone knows you can find Roman coins in Egypt...

[forgingiron123]

What if the guy who minted that coin knew that Christ would be born in 46 years? Maybe he was God.

[forgingiron123]

@forgingiron123 Oh wait yeah, it's impossible. THERE IS NO GOD.

[frootloops500]

nothin

[DANCELOVE250]

(did not look) nothing. he lied. there were no coins before Jesus was born!

[Coffesdashit]

@DANCELOVE250 ...yes there was....

[Magwi1]

I thaught the louvre was an art museum lol

[musicbox193]

nothing says a BC date on it!

[bradzzzzcelebratins]

46c

[noname12327]

who the heck makes a fake coin and buries it in the sand...?

[gixer750ws]

@noname12327 people do do that

My history teacher had a friend who found a coin like that in her garden

[DJHashBrownies]

£2057 a pound for every year!

[rotflmaopmpqxyz]

@DJHashBrownies so a penny from the 80s is worth $30?

[AbbeyDawn65]

First of all, why is this guy digging up a friggin` coin?

[mk1008001]

he has got funny hands.. i say beat him to death and take it..

[sharks445]

there's no such thing as a 3 dollar bill. fail.

[v1sual3y3ss]

i think t will be...

a lot?

[thebunsters1]

@v1sual3y3ss the opposite

[ShannaPondanna]

I bet the coin is chocolate

[littlemissme909]

Read the roman numerals on the coin!

[FeatherstreamXD]

Well, its probably $0.00 because we won't know the exact price anywayh.

[paintballftw69]

@FeatherstreamXD there usually worth about 500 to 1,000 dollars depending on time period and condition, but anyways nothing because museums only take donations usually.

[garibayja123]

I hate the cheap animation just show us the riddle.

[DHMeep]

@garibayja123 fucking true! :D

[TheVideoGametuts]

Nothing because museums usually take donations

[NoNameAkkount]

nothing :D

[ntico25]

$0.00

[emeraldbloopers]

Did that coin say 46 B.C >:O How did they know when christ was going to be born?

[undercoverpivotdudes]

@emeraldbloopers shrooms. roman shrooms.

[emeraldbloopers]

@undercoverpivotdudes Who didn't have roman shrooms back then?

[undercoverpivotdudes]

@emeraldbloopers wha? every roman had a box of shrooms somewhere. what did rich plp do when watching gladiators? shrooms.

[Vgamer311]

@emeraldbloopers you literally just solved the riddle

[NBAChickenLover]

Who else thinks all the bullshit animations before the riddle are unnecessary?

[BooToHaters]

people still belived in god back at that time juseus being born was just prof

[zoomerlawns]

One time I saw a fart come out of my dog's butt. Later on I found out it wasn't a fart at all! I was so embarrassed! I had picked up the fart and sent it to Ripley's Believe It Or Not! Museum. I was hoping to get into the Guiness' Book of World Records for heaviest fart. It might not have made it as heaviest, but It definitely would have gotten the smelliest award. The award wouldn't be smelly - it would be an award for being the smelliest fart - just had to clear that up.

[CrazyRockr]

what songs are these? P.S. I love your vidS!

[GUIC3DUP]

less, romans werent that early

[undercoverpivotdudes]

@GUIC3DUP rofl,romans ruled about 800 bc,so thats LATE roman time.

[hickasblankets]

Nothing. Why would you pay money for a worthless coin?

[BSReflux24]

OOoo i thought the used carbon dating to date the coin back to 46 B.C...... haha xP

[colin2631]

nothing

it sant be dated before crist because they didnt know who jesus was

that or it was labled before chuck noris

[ultivath]

Zero.

It's easy. No-one expected Jesus to arrive so they wouldn't put B.C on thier coins.

Plus, I doubt they even had coins at that time

[WouterNed]

@ultivath They did have coins at that time.

[PixelsGratz]

Louvre should still buy it - Ante Christum hasn't been said in centuries.

[thehaloring90]

@PixelsGratz ante christum? whut?

[jrw97]

@PixelsGratz It's still before Christ. As long as he can read Latin, he shouldn't believe it.

[cutecomedycool]

The coin cant say BC if they didnt know Jesus was alive yet!!!!!

[bBoyMikE13]

the coin said "A.C."

thumbs up if you mensioned that, too!!:D

[lovinganysuperstar]

none

[Nitya0607]

I think it should be 46 billon corores

[Nitya0607]

I think it should be 40 billon corores

[Kaylin881]

£0 because its a fake

[Horinius]

Without a clear image as a support, or with a picture difficult to see like in

riddlenow web site

the question is actually deprived of any meaning.

Oh, by the way, it's not enough to write ANTE CHRISTUM, but ANTE CHRISTUM NATUM. And small letters were not used in pure Latin, even a dumb swindler in archeology should know it.

[LiLChris771]

they should pay him with a 3 dollar bill !!!

[Horinius]

They *should* pay a few millions for that coin so they could sell it more to the dumb Amercians lol

[va1997ng]

0 because it is a roman coin.roman coin do not worth anything in egypt

[GnrlTuna]

btw I witnessed this guy dig it up!!!!!

[GnrlTuna]

Alexander the Great went to Egypt to have sex with Cleopatra to get her on his side.

[skunk630]

[noname12327]

[orochimaruPROLIKEHEL]

[cleopatralulu]

@Joeyster93 Ante Christum is BC in Roman

[cleopatralulu]

@Joeyester93 ANte Cristum is BC in Roman

[CristobalTL]

Ante Christom, guess that means before christ.

[dikkeshitouwe]

I got this one right lol w00t:p

[Beepboopbopful]

I will give em a penny for because just look at- it looks fake

[zuko25]

One question. Does anyone know what people referred to when talking about the years before Christ? Obviously they wouldn't be calling it 500B.C because they weren't expecting Jesus to arrive...

[FredrickVonWinkle457]

@zuko25 the same as we refer to, say, the 90's... they call those years "the past"

[zuko25]

@FredrickVonWinkle457 No I'm asking what people of 500B.C said the year was WHILE in 500B.C. I don't say 2011 past everyday. Do you understand?

[FredrickVonWinkle457]

@zuko25 then they would call it something like "the present". Do YOU understand?

[SBSexpress]

@zuko25 YEA they were...

:| Durr.

[Bilk0n11]

@zuko25 they were counting with Generations which equals to 35 years.

[zuko25]

@Bilk0n11 ok so do you know why B.C was added after Jesus was born?

was it really necessary?

[Bilk0n11]

@zuko25 They used B.C. because they didn't have any other major date and it would be easier for people from the future like us understand dates better.Oh, and B.C. hadn't been added to dates immediately after Christ was born but I don't know when.Hope I helped.

[Robertz1986]

@zuko25

Depends where you were... the Roman Empire dated either from the Founding of the city of Rome, or in relation to the reign of an emperor, king, or consul. Jesus was born in the 28th year of the reign of Caesar Augustus! Some parts of the world still use other methods..

[djlocman3]

@Robertz1986 now in they use C.E. (common era) and B.C.E. (before common era)

[smoshrules1000]

@zuko25 nobody really cared until A.C. came around.

[zuko25]

@smoshrules1000 A.C?

[KidRiviera]

@zuko25 There was no standard calendar back then, every civilization used a different one. The Gregorian calendar wasn't accepted as standard until a long time after what we think of as 1 AD, so we don't know how many years ago Jesus was supposed to have been born, we guessed and used whatever historical records we could find from other cultures to fill in gaps. Fun fact: It is unlikely that it is really 2011, given sparse records from some periods, it is actually more likely to be around 1711

[zuko25]

@KidRiviera strange...I go to school yet this is the first thing I've learned today :D

[KidRiviera]

@zuko25 lol in that case I'll provide you with another tidbit. The Mayan long count calendar, said to end in 2012, was created long before what we call 1 AD, and did not count in Gregorian years. It is a cyclical calendar, with each epoch of time being even, unlike our calendar, which uses a date system where a date can fall on any day of the week. Think of it like our calendar, except every date always falls on the same day. When you reach the end, you start over and the same calendar applies.

[stelthykid47]

@zuko25 they say B.C. now because the people know that he already came

[plantleg]

@zuko25 there was a prophecy that a messiah would arrive and die for their sins

[PeacefulChaos123]

@zuko25 they problay didnt say anything special, just like we dont add anything onto the "2011"

[rkokales]

@zuko25 good question.

[zuko25]

@zuko25 Let me rephrase my question:

Let's say you went back in time and asked a merchant "what year is it?" Now it's actually 500B.C but how would he respond to that?

[timluijten987654321]

how could they know that jesus was born 46 years later?

[spidey2099m]

oh crap! i just spent my lifes savings on a roman coin identical to that!

i am in SO. MUCH. CRAP.

[alejorag]

@spidey2099m you are lol

[58crimson13]

there were no coins in 46 B.C.

[erickalexis]

how can it be marked bc? before christ, nobody knew of christ and they certainly didnt use the years we use today. The museum shouldnt pay a penny for it.

[KinokochanX3]

0 dollars, how are the coin making people supposed to know what B.C. is while it is B.C.? its a modern measurement...

[pokemonkiller20]

On the coin, it says 46 BC. Noone knew what year it was before christ so it was impossible to write its date. That coin is fake

[TheLolzy11]

Answer:Nothing

[Waddleduck64]

Who cares about the video, let's all watch ilovesparky13's and andersvanaller's stupid fight instead! :D

[ilovesparky13]

@Waddleduck64 that would be fairly boring cuz we stopped fighting a long time ago

[Waddleduck64]

@ilovesparky13 Yeah, but it's still amusing. Sorry.

Oh by the way, andersvanaller was totally being an ass. Don't know if you wanted a 3rd person's opinion, but here it is.

[ilovesparky13]

@Waddleduck64 no, im glad =) it helps point out i wasnt over reacting 4 no reason at all.

[alewisgb]

[MsHorrorzone]

[manuhunter101]

[dizodo]

[danne696]

Whole Africa is on the coin and that wasn't discovered at that time. Guess it's Africa at least :) And Idk what "Ante Christum" is :S

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 idiot!

of course they did.

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller shut up. u make mistakes once in a while too.. everyone does.

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 but not that big mistakes!

i mean why wouldnt they have coins?

lamo..

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller sometime in your life you're gonna screw up badly. then we'll see who's laughing, wont we?

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 it wasnt a big fail but i mean why would you write something that you honestly dont know..

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller it was past midnight when i wrote it and i wasnt thinking straight. plus i kinda forgot

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 past midnight my ass.

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller bitch.

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 why do we even argue over this? :)

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller D= because u keep going on about how stupid i am. IT WAS A SIMPLE MISTAKE! D=

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 A simple mistake, which was totally über retarded..

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller SEE?! THATS MY POINT!! if u could just learn to shut your mouth and stop trying to act like your perfect, then we wouldnt be having this conversation right now.

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 im not perfect.

just better than you ^^

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller well you're older than me so of course u think that. but if we were the same age, then u would be wrong.

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 how do you know anything about my age?

how old are you yourself?

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller *rolls eyes* cuz it says it on your profile. it says youre 19. i dont wanna tell u my exact age, but if u told the truth about your age, then im younger than u.

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller YAAAAAY! u didnt say anything mean!! =D

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 i am not 19 ^^

im 14 : D

and dude.. I am not mean at all..

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller when u keep making feel like im the most stupid person on the planet and that youre WAY better than me, THAT is not mean??

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 no, cause you ARE the stupidest person! :)

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller u are such an asshole.

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 no YOU are such an asshole :D

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller lol :D

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 we are havin' so much fun :)

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller haha yeah! this has been the best week of my life! =D

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 what a sad life :D

[ilovesparky13]

@andersvanaller wow...thats so sad. u must be an EXTREMELY stupid 14 year old cuz u dont even know sarcasm when u see it.

[andersvanaller]

@ilovesparky13 sarcasm doesent work in text bro..

[PeterFormaini]

@ilovesparky13 " stop trying to act like your perfect"

Oh, the irony!!!!!!!!

It's 'you're", dear. Best not to make errors when calling someone else out about their perfection. :D

[pokemonkiller20]

@ilovesparky13 I REALLY don't get what you too are fighting over about.

[ilovesparky13]

@pokemonkiller20 i simply forgot that they had coins back then. THAT is what the whole fight was about. >:( but everyone makes a mistake! he didnt have to act like a huge jerk about it!!!

[DisarmingHinkle]

It wouldn't be known as B.C. at the time.

[leotamer5]

may guess is zero it fake

[corjonbett]

BUBKES!! The coin wouldn't be stamped B.C, because they wouldn't know when Christ was going to be born!!

[Joeyster93]

oh is the ante christum BC?

[Joeyster93]

wait,wait,wait,wait! where does it say BC?

[ilyjelllo]

@Joeyster93 0:42

[VladB91]

@Joeyster93 Ante Christum=BC

[MrMariofan7]

@Joeyster93

it says 'ante christum'

which is latin for BC

[mrjman13]

@Joeyster93 ante christum means, "before christ", BC means "before christianity", or, before people began believing in Christ, not necessarily before Christ Himself. the reason they say the coin is fake is because in 46 BC they didn't know when Christ was coming, they didnt even use the term bc.
