Monetary Conversions

Money conversions are slightly complicated:
10 Copper Pieces = 1 Silver Piece.
10 Silver Pieces = 1 Gold Piece.
10 Gold Pieces = 1 Imperial Copper.
10 Imperial Copper = 1 Imperial Silver.
10 Imperial Silver = 1 Imperial Gold.
10 Imperial Gold = 1 Grand Imperial.

Pieces, no matter what type, are about the size of an American Quarter. It is very rare to see an Imperial change hands. Imperials are about the size of an Eisenhower Dollar. They are considered too large to be a useful exchange medium. Most regular items are quoted in Silver Pieces. Armor and metal weapons are generally quoted in Gold Pieces. There are four types of Imperial coins — Copper, Silver, Gold, and Royal or Grand. Imperials are larger, and stamped with the image of the appropriate Dragon on the appropriate coin, and an image of Sedmon on the back. The Grand Imperial has an image of the Emperor's palace on the front. A Grand Imperial is also decorated with gems.
