Everyone is saying gold but...next thing you know people will be throwing mina at ghosts. XD Should probably consider something else. 0 Upvote Actually had that happen during early Vailor.

Temp 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Personally, I've been RPing it as a gold coin. On one side, a crown. The other, cattle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farryn 812 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I mostly see it as a gold coin with a crown with an M on top on on one side, and the faces of the four races on the other side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

excited 10833 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I've always imagined it like denari with imprints of important historical figures from the local nation or county. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonslayerelf 653 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Contrary to popular belief, I always thought they were silver simply because... Mina were actually a thing. In ancient Greece and the Middle East, which was a coin meant to represent 1 mina's worth of silver. So I always just assumed, considering it was historically based on silver, that the coins in and of themselves were silver instead of gold. Also, I've always RP'd them as being silver coins. Also, another bit on Wikipedia defines it as which basically just says "It's silver." So yeah, I always thought it was silver. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerochrometilt 272 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Always imagined them like below, shitty coins minted out quickly (like these models) and lying in large piles in every bank about the realm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GgDionne 42 Share Posted September 27, 2017 To find the value of the mina in real life, we need to find the value of an item that could be found in real life, and then we can compare values. A good sword, somewhere around 25% from the auction house, can run you dry 50 mina. So lets find how much a good strong sword would cost in medieval times; Reddit tells us it costs about 1 Pound in medieval times, or about 26,500 pounds today. Alright, so to find the value, lets divide 26,500 by 50; that gives us 530 So in conclusion, a single mina is worth about 530£ or about 712.43$ american.
