I'm working on a novel and I need to find a good currency system that's simple and good for a fantasy novel in a time of Kings, Knights, pirates, etc. Something like the way Ramond E Feist's Midkemia functions.I would prefer something that uses copper, silver, and gold. But I would need to understand the worth of the coins to properly know what something in my story should cost. I don't know any currency system but US. I have already looked at Doubloons, pounds, shillings etc but I don't understand them and as I said, I would rather have something simple that involves copper, silver, and/or gold. Does anyone happen to have any idea the system that Feist uses? I don't know the price of what something would cost in a medieval based time either so I need a system that I can research to find its worth within that time frame.
Please help.
