I think they had coins way before dollars and they were important to buy stuff, just like today. Before coins people just traded things, like 2 goats for a cow, or stack of wood for some type of service. Not very convenient to carry things around with you when you wanted to go shopping, so coins were used to instead.

because many people use coins or turn them into dollars.
