A question about currency in BR
I can't remeber that there is some information about currencies in the
boxset or the supliments. Now when thinking about it I have not used
anything else than the classic pp, gp, ep, sp, cp.
What do you rest use, the classic coins, each country has it's own, a
larger region has it's own (e.g. anuire, rjuvik, breshtur has it's own)
or ....
Do you use a one to one exchange rates, do you have special coins in
different countries/areas which are worthless outside that area or has a
lower/higher value.

A question about currency in BR
Just an idea for naming money:
Platnum: Hyperion
Gold: Nomismata
Electrum: Millasarion
Copper: Follis
Oh, and not my idea.

The Muden Sourcebook also provides names of coins from the Brecht region
if memory serves.

Personally I use (fairly interchangeably)
Gold: Florins, Crowns, Krona, Marks, Talents
Silver: Crowns, Guineas, Schillings, Shekels
Copper: Farthings, Pennies, Pfennig, Dinar
You'll notice that gold has more names than any others. I'm damned if
I can remember what Krona breaks down into.
