Let's Make Better Rpg Currencies

I'm curious what currency systems my fellow #ttrpg GMs have dreamt up when #worldbuilding.

It's always annoyed me how #dnd's gp/sp/cp currency resembles the USD system so much in the way it is used, despite the fact that IRL a single gold coin would be worth more than my car. Does #WotC think my backpack is worth $8k? That makes no sense to me.

Yeah, I know. I recognise the @'s at the beginning of the message. Please don't bring middle-of-the-sentence-hashtags to it. It makes the text less legible, for the sake of better SEO on... Mastodon
