View source for Currency

Money in the disc is manifested as [[coin]]s that are carried about. All coin types from a region form a currency.

{{TOC right}}

==Money types==

The value for each coins for the various currencies vary wildly, but they can all be expressed in a base value of 1 wichit bead (wibi) or 1 brass coin.

There are several types of '''currency''' that can be found on the Disc that are legal tender somewhere (as reported by 'money here') and/or have coins that can be obtained.
*Newbie Area or [[Pumpkin Town]] money, in use in the newbie area. (It is converted to local currency upon leaving Pumpkin Town.) It is also the currency in the [[Newbie Area Museum]], but only outside the shop, with no coins in sight.
*[[Counterweight Continent]], [[Agatean Empire]] or BP money, in use in [[Bes Pelargic]], on [[Thursday's Island]] and on the [[Brown Islands]], although you need to trade with the natives as they do not accept money.
*Ankh-Morpork or AM money, in use in [[Ankh-Morpork]] and the rest of the [[Sto Plains]].
*Djelian or DJB money, in use in [[Djelibeybi]], the [[Djelibeybi Harbour]], the shop of the [[Imtebos farmstead]], the [[Lower Djel Trading Post]], and the [[Klatchian Foreign Legion]] outpost.
*Ephebian money, in use in [[Ephebe]], the [[Chronides farmstead]], [[Il Drim]], the [[Oasis]] and [[Calh-Nhad]].  Also may be found on mean Ephebian mercenaries in Ankh-Morpork and spectators and fans in the [[PK combat arena]].
*Genuan money, in use in [[Genua]] and [[Bois]].
*Lancre money, in use in the [[Ramtops]] and [[Uberwald]].
*Klatchian money, in use in the ruins of [[Tacticum]].
*Tsortean money, in use in the [[PK combat arena]] ([[Throw-Myself-To-The-Lions Dublar]] has coins).
*Howondaland money, available from the [[money changer]] south of the Dockside Market, [[Ephebe]].

Other types of '''currency''' are coded and can be simulated using the ''rate'' command, but coins for them have not yet been found in game. (If you find a way to get coins from those currencies please update!) The full names of many of the denominations are unknown. It is possible that extra coins exist for each currency (as Ankh-Morpork pence come in pence, ten-pence, and half-dollars while still being referred to as #p by the rate command). As these currencies are currently unobtainable, it is impossible to find the missing coins. 
*Chee Smee Blee money.
*Count von Mont money.
*Troll money.
*Gemstone money.
*Ham-on-koom money.
*Krullian money.
*Zchlotia money.

Finally, there is a currency which used to be in game but should not be anymore:
*Provincial, which has been replaced with the other currencies.

The [[Currency/Big Table of Coins|Big Table of Coins]] is a simplified, sortable table with the value of every coin currently in circulation. More detailed information on each currency is listed below.

==Converting money==

In-game, you can use the "rate" command or the "convert" command to see how much a certain amount is worth in another type of currency.

<pre>rate <money> {in|from} <place> {to|in} <place>
rate <money> {to|in} <place></pre>
<pre>convert money <money> {in|from} <place> {to|in} <place>
convert money <money> {to|in} <place></pre>

For example:
<pre>>rate LSov 2|8|-|1/4 to am
LSov 2|8|-|1/4 is worth A$138.24.
>rate 27 Lancre crowns, 56 Lancre shillings, 4 Lancre sixpences, 4 Lancre thruppences, 4 Lancre tuppences, one Lancre penny, 5 Lancre ha'pennies and 3 Lancre farthings to am
LSov 2|7|11|8 3/4 is worth A$138.14.</pre>

You can use a [[money changer]] to actually change one type of currency to another, or use [[bank]]s that have branches in different areas.

Tsortean money is unique in that there are two different categories of coins - the coins of the para category (coloured blue) are all multiples of 3, and the coins of the akche category (coloured red) are all multiples of 7. The one coin that falls into both categories is the heptakche.
