CASH
Midgaard's economy is based on gold and silver coinage. Gold coins are worth
100 silver coins, but are also four times as heavy (25 to the pound, as opposed
to 100 to the pound for silver). Gems, such as diamonds, can be bought from
jewelers to alleviate weight problems. Most jewelers charge a mere 10% more
than they are worth.
Diamonds have special meaning to members of a clan. See DIAMONDS.
