[QUOTE="philreed, post: 1866225, member: 5968"] Ah, the things that get lost when so many products are out there. We wrote clipped coins into Treasures of Freeport. "Coin clipping requires some basic tools including a way to melt the metal down, time, and a supply of coins; about 30 coins per hour can be clipped. A coin cannot be clipped to less than 3/4 of its size before merchants will refuse to take it. For every four coins that are clipped, an amount of metal equal to one coin is gained in this manner; thus someone clipping 80 coins would be able to gain about enough metal to equal 20 additional coins. Passing clipped coins is a matter of succeeding at either a Bluff or Diplomacy check against the person accepting the coins. If you win the check the coins are accepted, if you lose the check, the coins are rejected. You gain a bonus to the check if you mix in the clipped coins with regular coins; the bonus is +1 every increase of the ratio starting with +1 for a 1:1 ratio. For instance, if you try to pass 10 clipped coins along with 20 normal coins then you have a 2:1 ratio and gain a +2 on the check." That was an excellent product that, unfortunately, did not do as well as expected. [url]http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=2762[/url] [/QUOTE]
