v0.31:Currency
| This article is about an older version of DF. |
The game's currency is measured in "☼", called "dwarfbucks" or "db's" by some players.
Aside from "dwarfbucks" physical coins can be minted at the metalsmiths forge using a single metal bar and one unit of fuel. Each bar produces 500 coins which have a total value based on which metal they were made from. For example 500 gold coins have a value of 300☼ whereas 500 silver coins have a value of 100☼. Coins have their own stockpile p->n with which bins can be used to store 6 stacks of coins (3000 total). Coins are named based on the year they are minted and the name of your fortress e.g Thidalsokt 108 Gold coins. The coins also depict scenes like statues.
Unlike other crafted metal items coins do not seem to have a value modifier based on quality(verify?)
Looking at the RAWS, DF2010 will contain some changes to coins, coins will have subjects on them and we guess this means they are useful now.
