Money in the disc is manifested as coins that are carried about. All coin types from a region form a currency.
There are several types of currency that can be found on the Disc. They are:
- Newbie Area money aka 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.
- Agatean Empire money, in use in Bes Pelargic, the Brown Islands (although you need to trade with the natives as they do not accept money), and on Thursday's Island.
- Ankh-Morpork money, in use in Ankh-Morpork and the rest of the Sto Plains.
- Djelian money, in use in Djelibeybi, the Djelibeybi Harbour, the shop of the Imbetos farmstead, the Lower Djel Trading Post, and the Klatchian Foreign Legion outpost.
- Ephebian money, in use at 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).
Several 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 found any please update this!)
- Chee Smee Blee money.
- Howondaland money.
- Zchlotia money.
Finally, there is a currency which used to be in game but should not be anymore:
- Provincial, which should no longer be in use, since it has been replaced with the other currencies.
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.
rate <money> {in|from} <place> {to|in} <place>
rate <money> {to|in} <place>
convert money <money> {in|from} <place> {to|in} <place>
convert money <money> {to|in} <place>
For example:
>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.
You can use a money changer to actually change one type of currency to another, or use banks that have branches in different areas.
