| Price Lists, Drink List, and Menu |
| Josie's Pricing System I tried to come up with a system that has some balance between those who think a silver for a drink is insanely expensive, and those who think a gold piece for a bottle is damn cheap. The logic here is that the common individual isn't going to have a pocketful or gold, or shouldn't. You can assume that whatever prices Josie charges, they are fair and reasonable compared to the average. Bear in mind also that the Seacliff is *NOT* a very fancy place - it is a comfortable old tavern and inn by the sea. So she doesn't charge terribly much. Monies are coined in metals, copper valued the least, and gold being very rare. Silver is seen, though take care in flashing it about, the thieves will notice. Size and weight define how much each coin is worth. The base coin is the copper coin, or copper penny. The metals rise in value through Copper, Silver, Gold, Platinum. There are two levels of value for each metal - the penny and the crown. They work on a ten to one ratio. The crowns are larger than the basic metal coins, like our dimes and quarters. In simpler terms, a crown is worth ten of whatever metal it is made from, and the exchange rate for the metals is 100-1. |

| 2 half-pennies (or pence) = 1 copper penny 10 copper pennies = 1 copper crown 10 copper crowns = 1 silver coin/penny 10 silver coin/pennies = 1 silver crown 10 silver crowns = 1 gold coin 10 gold coins = 1 gold crown 10 gold crowns = 1 platinum piece (or 100 gold pieces - you don't see many of these, neh?) 10 platinum pieces = 1 platinum crown (or 1000 gold pieces - you REALLY don't see many of those.) * The copper crown is the basic unit of money in these parts, roughly equivalent to one dollar in terms of relative buying power. (Or perhaps a bit less.) |
