Most political units on Jesenreth, be they a nation, city state, or confederation, mint their own coins in the three common precious metals, copper, silver, and gold, and stamp them with their name, the year of minting, and an image of the current ruler. This currency is issued primarily for use within that unit's borders, but most coins from established polities are accepted in most civilized places, though not always at face value. Accepted nearly universally is the [[Syndecol Industries]] paper ''credit'', whose supply and value is tightly controlled, but is normally equal to one silver piece.

The [[Ploi Drajit]]/[[Confederation of Uth]] gold coin is the round, one inch in diameter ''bit'', which is worth 10 silver ''tabs'', and 100 copper ''pips''. One of the newer coins in circulation, it has nonetheless become the international standard in weight and purity, and is accepted almost as widely as the ''credit''.

The next major common currency is the cubical [[Ufrealor]] ''krom'', a little smaller but purer than the ''bit''. A ''krom'' is worth 10 silver ''quors'' and 100 copper ''kads''. Ufrealoran dwarves also make gold trade bars, much used by merchants, in denominations of 10, 100, and 1000 ''krom''. In older times, they had two other kinds of coin, the electrum ''dildor'', worth 2 ''krom'', and the platinum ''prad'', worth 10 ''krom''. Adventurers occasionally find such old coins in long-lost hordes.

The other dwarven states have coins which are equivalent in shape and values but differ in name.

All of the elven states use the same currency, the slender, curved gold ''lune'', which is worth 10 silver ''las'' and 100 copper ''lims''. Elves also conduct trade with gems of several varieties and standardized weights. An emerald ''allune'', for example, is worth 100 ''lune''.

The [[Ketten Islands]] use the square, 1 1/2 inch gold ''sterl'', worth 10 copper ''shils'' and 100 copper ''pecs''. They have also pioneered the use of promissory notes and have the most advanced banking system, besides that of the Syndecs.

The [[Genasi and Aasimar Confederation]] uses the flat, rectangular gold ''sial'', worth 10 silver ''vibeks'' and 100 copper ''dromps''.

The other states, when they use money, usually adopt one of the above or a combination thereof. [[Gnolls]] do not value coins.
