Coin

How to Acquire
Using one bar of any metal with a coinpress will produce 100 coins with a quality level equal to that of the bar used to make them. A stack of 100 coins can be reverted back to a bar of the respective metal by melting them in a finery forge. In addition, stacks of exactly 10 coins may be melted down to create a nugget of metal. Coins are not required to trade, but they can be used to purchase items from player-built Vending Stands. The value of any coin can depend heavily on who you are trading with and what they value the metal content at, as well as the quality of the metal used to make the coin.

However due to the difficulty of setting up and maintaining vending stands, coupled with the high cost of the materials required to make a coinpress (one bar of steel, two wrought and three cast), coins are often considered to be not worth the effort to make; metals are often bought and sold in bar form or in the shape of finished goods, which are then traded for other items in person.

Stacks of coins can be Split into two stacks by right-clicking the pile of coins, and specifying how many coins to remove.
