Answer:

the Cowry Shell

Step-by-step explanation:

The Cowry Shell were being used in the world as early as 700 BC in China. It is considered durable. For many years, cowries shell were utilized as a means of exchanges over the areas such as India and Africa, southern Europe, and China.

However, alcohol and cattle have never served as a general means of exchange, only on a few occasions used as a trade by barter. While gold can be remade in a less original version using less expensive metals and painting.

Hence, in this case, the right answer is THE COWRY SHELL
