Koynz

= The Currency of the Realm =

Description
The currency of the land is called Koynz or a Koyn.... which sounds exactly like coins or coin and only really seems different when written, at which point newcomers tend to get confused. Koynz themselves are unique in that they are ununique by being solid disks with no markings.

Most cities, towns and villages work off a barter and trade system as opposed to dealing with currency, due to the fact the world is rather poor, save for a select few individuals and locations. (You're free to play a character as rich or poor as you like. This is just the basics of the world in which LAT exists.)

Types of Koynz
There are four types of koynz.


 * Copper = Lowest currency.
 * Silver = Average currency, equal to ten Copper Koynz.
 * Gold = High currency, equal to ten Silver. (Some places accept Gold Koynz)
 * Platinum = Extremely high currency, equal to one hundred Gold Koynz. (Most places do not accept Platinum Koynz)

Acceptance of Koynz
Certain koynz are too rich or too poor to be accepted in certain places. Silver is the most common type of Koynz accepted. Shops and merchants may deal in only rich Gold or Platinum Koynz to guarantee only a select wealthy clientel, as such is the thought Sumwher has with their Koyn restrictions.
