Copper Plate Money
In an effort to capitalize on Country's abundant Copper reserves, the government has introduced large Copper plate coins to supplement the Silver currency. These enormous coins, while innovative, are unwieldy and impractical for everyday use. They have caused great frustration among Burghers, as well as foreign traders. Should we double down on our Copper-backed currency, or return to more conventional minting methods?

2903historical_info = flavor_swe.56.historical_info In the middle of 17th century, Sweden introduced large copper plate coins, some weighing up to 20 kilograms, as a way to utilize its abundant copper resources and compensate for a shortage of silver. These coins were technically valid currency, but proved highly impractical for daily use due to their size and weight. Though innovative, they highlighted the challenges of basing a monetary system on non-precious metals.
