Due to recent coin shortages partially due to Riverside not being open and partially due to the influx of new critters after the hiatus, it seems there's a need for a new coins.
I've mentioned this a few times IC, but I want to go over the vague ideas OOC before an IC meeting. I would like these coins to be initially distributed for public projects (festivals, stuff like getting more lamps, library books, etc) and to pay for the metal(s)/clay to make the coin itself. Any further distribution will be done however critters see fit.
This likely won't start being fully worked on until at least January, likely mid January due to the busy holiday season (at least for me). It also currently cannot be worked on, due to coin stamps being uncraftable due to a bug, I have also not checked if coin stamping is working properly. In any case, an early forum post is better than a late one.
There's a few options that I'm considering.
- Use a new standard-ish system, with standard 1, 5, 10 numbered coins. This could save on types of metal used, depending on what happens with it.
- Use a completely new system. This is my personal favorite, since it could be a lot of fun. It'd also be fun to learn a new non standard coin system.
