The Ream Is about a 20R=1€ exchange ratio with the euro (Ream=Euro) and is mostly coin based. The size and design of a golden band (as in circle) around each distinguishes them.

The name of each coin:
1/10 Ream = Rel (1 Band)
1/4 Ream = Rez (2 Bands)
1/2 Ream = Ren (3 Bands)
1 Ream = Ream (4 Bands)
10 Ream = Rean (5 Bands)
20 Ream = Reaz (6 Bands)
50 Ream = Real (7 Bands)
100 Ream = Reym (8 Bands)
200 Ream = Reyn (9 Bands)
500 Ream = Reyz (10 Bands)

We did produce a Reyl (1000 Ream) but few are in existence. We are working on moving to a paper system.

The currency of Central Lothian is the Central Lothian Pound. This is available in the various denominations:

Coins:
-> 1p.
-> 2p.
-> 5p.
-> 10p.
-> 20p.
-> 50p.
-> £1.
-> £2.

Notes:
-> £5.
-> £10.
-> £20.
-> £50.
-> £100.
-> £500 (although he died in May, they are referred to as "Bin Ladens" - Central Lothianers know they existed and knows what they look like, but no-one's ever seen them).

There's no one specific street where the financial institutions can be found - but the City of Edinburgh is pretty much reserved for that purpose, so it's referred to as "The City".

Please note: Central Lothian is the direct successor to Mid Lothian*. As a result, I am still called Rebecca, I am still a Grammar Nazi and most information pertaining to ML also applies to CL (although I will be taking this time to change a few things).

* - And I may refer to the country as Mid Lothian. If I do, assume that I mean Central Lothian. (And not to be confused with "Midlothian" - I'm using that as a fascist version of CL.)

Dagnia actually has many different currencies, as it is all production- or gold-based. There are three main standards, two competing private ones controlled by some of the banks, and a government gold-based currency. There are a few other smaller ones, but the three are universally accepted.

Legionium's currency system is one of the weirdest ever. It is divided into three different monetary systems, but is normally known as the Amphiargentum. It is available in the following formats:

Minorargentum (symbol: A-): 1A-, 2A-, 5A-, 10A-, 20A-, 50A- (worth 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20 and 0.50 Amphiargentums respectively)
Amphiargentum (symbol: A or §): 1§, 2§, 5§, 10§, 20§, 50§
Omniargentum (symbol: A+): 1A+, 2A+, 5A+, 10A+, 20A+, 50A+ (worth 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 Amphiargentums respectively)

Amphi and Minorargentums are the most commonly used currencies, while the Omniargentum is less used (mainly due to the lower Omniargentum values also being available in Amphiargentums). Every currency has different characteristics:

Minorargentum: Piece of paper with roughly the size of a stamp (Legionium does not produce solid coins). It features a less famous Legionium personality, the value of the piece, anti-forging technology, and a small magnet on the corner.

Amphiargentum: Sized like a normal money note. It features some of the highest known personalities in Legionium, anti-forging technology, and the value stamped five times in a row, on the top and bottom of the bill.

Omniargentum: Shaped like a credit card. It features the five heroes of Legionium, and severe anti-forging technology.

It is awfully common for Legionium inhabitants to turn one currency into the other. Next to most Legionium cash registers lies a Argentum-Discidium, a device with the shape of an Amphiargentum note, which quickly divides the note into ten, which are accepted as valid Minorargentums. Likewise, joining Minorargentums with their incorporated magnets is a legit way of coming up with Amphiargentums.

Some other stores have devices where you can run your Omniargentum like a credit card to trade it into Amphiargentum bills, although this is less common.

The Ruble (Worth about US$2.50 depending upon current exchange rates.) It is divided into 100 Kopeks

What does your currency look like?


Coins are minted in denominations of:

1 Kopek: copper colored, slightly smaller than a US penny

5 Kopeks: silver colored, slightly larger than 1 kopek coin

10 Kopeks: gold edge around silver center, sligtly larger than a 5 kopek coin

25 Kopeks: silver edge around a gold center, slightly larger than a US quarter


Banknotes are printed in the following denominations:

1 Ruble: (Commonly called a "moose") Green colored, with an image of the Grand Duchess on the front and a moose on the back. It is roughly the same width as a US dollar bill, but is somewhat shorter.

5 Rubles: (Commonly called a "salmon" or "fish") The same width as a 1 ruble note, but is slightly longer. It is salmon colored, and has an image of the Grand Duchess on the front, and a salmon on the back.

10 Rubles: (Commonly called a "bear") The same width, but slightly longer than the 5 ruble note. (Notes printed before 1999 were also wider.) It has an image of the Grand Duchess on the front, and on the back in an image of a polar bear sitting below a stary sky in which the north star is prominent.

20 Rubles: (Commonly called an "eagle") Has not been printed since 1999, but was never demonitized so there may still be a few in circulation. It was the same width as a pre-1999 10 Ruble note, but slightly longer. It was brown colored, with an immage of the Grand Duchess on the front, and an eagle on the back.

Do you have any Financial centers? (I.E. Wall Street)


The headquarters of most banks and major corporations are located at or near the city center of Novopetrograd (the capital.) There isnt really a more specific location.

Any well know Business men or women in your nations?


Viktor Zotov - President of Berex Corporation (Beringovia's largest petrolium company)

Dmitry Malikov - President of North Star Bank (Beringovia's largest private bank)

Yulia Koshkinova - Beringovia's most prominent business woman. President of Koshkinov Industries, and export and retail company.

Aleksey Maslov - Not a businessman per se, but as the Chairman of the Board of Governers of Beringovias Royal Central Reserve Bank, exercises enormous influence over the financial system

Our currency is called the "Yeckal" after a well-known but mysterious bard, who went off on a vacation of sorts and was never heard from again, he is missed greatly by the people and popular conspiracy theorist believe that he was abducted and killed by the nation's government due to his increasing popularity, this is preposterous, High King Miharu loved Yeckal like a brother.

The Yeckal is a 1 inch gold coin with a depiction of Yeckal on one side and a harp on the other, and comes only in the value of one Yeckal. There are lesser coins for lesser values, but these do not have particular names.

Our most famous business women is Yae Oda, the CEO of Fog Blue a temp. agency well renowned for dealing in international espionage under the table.

Our currency is called the Exchange Security, or ES for short. It receives backing from an equivalent in gold or silver, and may not be inflated. (There is a constitutional protection against the manipulation of markets or monetary systems.)

It is printed on hemp paper.

Of course there are centers for security exchange and finance. They are distributed and form the downtown of most cities.

after the end of a civil war and creation of a new government. It took a while but the government stabilized including the financial situation. The major center moved from the ruins of Soprian to New Montgomery and instead of dollars we operate in parcels of 1,3,5,10,15,20,50,and 100 and also a bankcard system. The parcels and the bankcards feature leaders of the civil war and the new imperial family

The Wuxen Sterling (W£) divided into Pounds and Pence;

Pence Coins
1p
2p
10p
25p
50p

Pound Coins
£1
£2
£5

Pound Notes
£10
£25
£50
£100
£1000 (rare)

One Pound (£1) is currently roughly equal to One International Standard Dollar ($1.03), meaning at today's exchange rate £100 would buy you $103.

The Sterling is currently fiat and there are no plans to change this in the forseeable future.

The Sterling is a universal legal tender, and all businesses must accept it as payment for goods, services and debts if so offered. However other currencies or other valuable items may also be used if all parties are willing, and many local authorities, all five states and even some banks create their own money (sometimes fiat, sometimes backed by commodities) which freely circulates around the economy alongside the Sterling.
