Image[edit]

Hmm. I went to attach an image, but the page is locked. That's annoying.

I was thinking the following line, just before the first table:

I changed it a bit (added frame and some writing). Is it okay? Dmilewski, are you okay with this being here (I don't want to step on any toes)? --Green Dragon 10:05, 20 April 2007 (MDT)
I'm cool with that. I categorized the images as Category:Image.
FYI, if folks want to place images within the SRD, and they are appropriate to GreenDragon or Sledged, then they are appropriate to me. --Dmilewski 11:48, 20 April 2007 (MDT)
I like the border and caption. I'm getting stuck on the word Typical. Perhaps Representative? --Cúthalion 21:52, 20 April 2007 (MDT)
Changed. Either works, and since you found and uploaded the image we will use your wording. --Green Dragon 15:36, 21 April 2007 (MDT)


No Electrum?

The monetary conversion table does not include the Electrum Piece for those playing pre-e3 rules. 1 ep = 5 sp.

  • Electrum is unpopular, since it doesn't use increments of 10. 95.71.91.148 13:16, 30 September 2024 (MDT)

There's another type of coin: Iron Coin (IRL Sparta used these; In-game, Peasants, Beggars, and other proletariate members are likely to use these). You see, 50 Coins of certain material = 1 pound of that material. E.G. 1 Pound of Platinum = 50 pp; 1 Pound of Gold = 50 gp; 1 Pound of Silver = 50 sp; 1 Pound of Copper = 50 cp. Therefore, by this extension, 1 Pound of Iron = 50 Iron Pieces = 10 CP; or, in other words, 1 Copper Coin = 5 Iron Coins. 95.71.91.148 07:59, 1 October 2024 (MDT)

Extended Money Types[edit]

Table: Coins[edit]
Exchange Value
IP CP SP EP GP PP
Iron piece (ip)= 1 1/5 1/50 1/250 1/500 1/5,000
Copper piece (cp)= 5 1 1/10 1/50 1/100 1/1,000
Silver piece (sp)= 50 10 1 1/5 1/10 1/100
Electrum piece (ep)= 250 50 5 1 1/2 1/25
Gold piece (gp)= 500 100 10 2 1 1/10
Platinum piece (pp)= 5,000 1,000 100 20 10 1

Is that correct? 95.71.91.148 08:06, 1 October 2024 (MDT)
