Both the passage and lecture talk about the authenticity of the European silver coin dated thousand years ago. The former asserts that the coin is fake while the latter contradicts each of its points. The arguments are as follows:
Firstly, The passage tells that the Norse settlement site and the archaeological site were located distinctly. The reading contradicts that many objects found at the archaeological site come from very distant places as Norse traveled largely across North America.
Furthermore, The author of the passage believes that no other coins were found at the Norse Canadian settlement. The lecturer counters by asserting that when Norse were planning to move to North America, they must have taken their valuables to America, but, while returning to Europe, they took all the coins leaving no other coins to be discovered at the archaeological site.
Finally, The author posits that Native Americans do not consider silver coins as money, and it is unnecessary for them. The lecturer challenges this argument by professing, Native Americans have an interest in unique items and find them attractive. The Norse must have traded silver coins with Native Americans as it can be used in necklaces and several different ornaments.
To sum up, both the writer and lecturer hold conflicting views about the authenticity of silver coins found at Maine, USA. It's clear that they will have trouble finding common ground on this issue.
