Make coins inspectable

[Sevenless]

I feel like this violates the social experiment concept haven is based on. A coin is only worth the trust you put in it. I wouldn't object to the mint itself storing the data but I'm with loftar on the whole magic info coin feeling weird for this game.

Its not magic, but physical text on the coin!

What granger is suggesting is that the coin keeps track of all circulated currency in existence in real time. That's definitely not just text considering.

You could make it a hearth magic to hand waive away the magic element but I still feel like it's taking too much power out of the social construct. I remember people deciding not to trade with DIS because they didn't trust their tin currency back when Hedgehugs became the trade center.

Not too fond of being able to magically see more coins of the currency being minted just from having a single coin on the other end of the world. I also think there should be some amount of trust involved in issuing currency, just like there is trust involved in more mundane trade.

So about about inspecting the origin coin press giving data about how many total coins are in circulation?

Question: Who makes access to their coinpress public?

Nobody.
I think the idea however was to be able to tell how many coins you've minted, but a good minter would be transcribing that anyway if they cared to know.
If you want to know how many coins you've put into circulation, keep track of it yourself. On the point of counterfeit coins, perhaps a label of who minted them would suffice.

Sounds good then you can read who minted the coin and compare it to the public information(forums etc) that the coin creator releases.

Master of Coin anyone

Edit*

One of the issues i see even for the creator of the coin it can be hard to track the current circulation of the coin. so the option to check the Coin press to view current coins in circulation would be a nice benefit, this is where game should take precedence over rl.
