The Lord Of Coins Novels & Stories

A king could never reign without the support of his nobles. A large pouch full of coins was thrown on the table in a room illuminated by just a mana fueled lamp. A low-class magitek gadget that was rather easily disseminated through the kingdom. The bearded man seated observed the pouch without moving to take it as he observed the black-clothed man in front of him. "Hundred Gold lust coins."

he muttered, though a hint of sarcasm laced his tone. “These coins,” he went on, “are silver, stamped with phases of the moon on one side and the goddess of night on the other. Five Crescents make a Half-Moon, and two Half-Moons make a Full Moon.” He spoke with a rhythm that might have sounded mesmerizing to anyone else, but to me, it was a lullaby. I couldn’t make myself care, no matter how much he repeated the details. “Is that so?” I mumbled absently, reaching for the silver coins lying on the table. They felt heavy and cool under my fingertips, foreign in their elegance. “I never knew there was something like this here.”

After some polite conversation, Bishop Leroy came to the point. 'Miss Stewart, I understand that Baron Stewart's territory received a compensation of 120,000 gold coins in the war with the Baron of Lorient?

The sword is tearing between them and around it's handle is in a crown and above is sky with wild lightings.

Mahagino is altogether more afraid to be executed than for his house to be burned by piratical incursions of the Viraiz clan. For Mahagino’s relief, Darina called Rowen, the cavalryman to bring a bag filled with golden coins and jewels. Rowen revealed that the bag has one thousand golden coins, three hundred pieces of silver, ten rubies, and ten sapphires. Darina commanded the cavalryman to record the amount. “Your fishes will be of Clapestris, is that enough?” Darina asked Mahagino giving out the bag to the scholar.

He had his residence on wheels, a strong ox that needed much less maintenance, and finally. He tossed the heavy pouch up and down his hand. In total, he had 56 copper coins, 32 silver coins, and 20 gold coins. The conversion of the coins was quite strange since the currency of the two empires on the continent differed. Still, in Heaven Dou Empire, a gold coin equals 10 silver coins and a silver coin equals 100 copper coins.

He opened the small box and took out a golden coin. Holding it up, he asked. “Do you know what this is?” “A coin grandpa,” Leo replied. “Correct, but not just any coin, this was one of the very first gold coins of the Roman Empire. It has the face of Julius Caesar himself on it. It is a rare treasure. Guard it dearly.” Leo clutched the coin in his tiny hands and placed it on his chest. “I promise grandpa, I will,” He looked at the coin again and the name ‘Roman’ made him ask. “Grandpa, did the Romans build Rome?”

Declan took the wet bag and it was true that there were lots of gold coins in it. Declan took out the coins, and he could see that on these gold coins, there was a lump the size of a basil seed in the middle. This was a sign deliberately made by them to make transactions with the Rogues bandits. After two failed transactions to track their whereabouts, Luca proposed tracking them using the gold coins they used for transactions elsewhere. “Our coins,” Draco said in a heavy tone. "That means my memory is not wrong that he was the person who hurt Luna at that time," Rio said.

he reminded her. She sighed deeply and said "I am loyal to your course, but even I cannot see the future. I have known Moira for decades, I thought she was up to the challenge." "I had high expectations, I really hoped for good news," He rubbed the round ball, that was the top-cap of his staff. "My lord, if I may speak?" Smeden who had been quiet, spoke up. "Speak," He permitted without sparing him a glance. "There has been a development. When Elzar and I carried out our daily inspection and sanitation of your room of treasures we noticed a disparity.

Liora said, folding her arms as she stepped closer. There was silence for a few seconds. Finally, Abile, still kneeling, trembling but seizing the moment, lifted his head slightly. “My queen said two gold coins were missing. But I checked everything over and over again including this morning. The records match. Nothing was missing, Your Highness.” “Two gold coins?” Liora repeated, blinking.
