Sex tokens, 20 AD

Sex tokens, 20 AD

These tokens are Roman. As you can see they show many different ... ways of playing leapfrog. They show both heterosexual and homosexual sex acts, though the homosexual ones aren't shown above. What these were used for is a complete mystery. We have no idea what or who used them. However, one main theory as to what these were used for is accepted by many as the reason for their existence. Basically, each coin has a different act with a different number on the back. The numbers go from 1 - 16. It is thought that these coins were used in brothels for different sex acts or were for different intensities of sexual services. The number one was probably a small kiss on the cheek and a pat on the head. Number 16 probably made you realise you have been lacking on your cardio. The coins are officially called Spintriae, and are a topic of debate for historians as to what they were used for. So in case your mother walks in on you reading Revived History once again, no I did just say anything written above. I am a good citizen who is trying to pay my taxes.
