Question: Extract the answer to the question from the following context. Question: If I lived in the 8th century, what change would I have seen?

Gold continued to be minted until the end of the 7th century, when it was replaced by silver coins. The basic Frankish silver coin was the denarius or denier, while the Anglo-Saxon version was called a penny.

No silver coins denominated in multiple units were minted.
