Thanks. If it is the wish of the kingdom to bring the manufacture of coins in house, I might be the most qualified to advise from the populace. In mundania, I'm a model maker and journeyman tool and die maker with design skills. voshe734@gmail.com or just PM me.

what's to keep people from hoarding the coins though? or more importantly what's to keep someone from coming, getting some tokens and then quitting amtgard?


They will, and they will. Nobody said that this was going to be easy. Making, and especially buying coins will most likely operate at a loss. If it's that important, a way will be found to pay for it.

Most of these issues have been discussed and plans have been made to deal with them. We will implement a banking system but if people want to take the coins, we aren't going to physically stop them. But if the economy is working, it wouldn't make sense to take them home, and risk losing them, when the bank will keep them safe and be able to give them back to you at the next event.

People taking them home isn't necessarily a bad thing. Think of it as marketing. Some one will see them eventually and ask "Hey, whats that?". As long as they are not to expensive to make we could pass them out at a demo with the explanation that they can be used in the game if they come to any EH park.

Money gets destroyed, it gets lost, it gets buried, it gets traded for candy. You're not going to be able to keep physical money anymore than i can seem to keep a bic pen or a pair of sunglasses. And as for a working bank, i hope your willing and ready to deal with that head ache. I have enough trouble understanding my savings account, your going to need a fair ammount of accounting background or access to it anyway...

That said, We've used the 1:1 ratio at our home park with glass stones from the home decor isle. you can get 'em in different colors if you need denominations, they're inexpensive, you can get like 200 of them for $5. Sure they're easy and cheap to duplicate, but that just drives the price higher and then it gets fun. Plus they make a great clinky sound when you carry them in a pouch.

Just my 2 gems worth,
