Currency

The Valorian Empire's officially-recognized currency is split into four denominations, all of which are made of different materials (bronze, silver, gold, and platinum), and are formed into small circular coins.

The denominations of the Valorian Empire's currency are:
 * Bronze pieces, also known as copper pieces, copper bits, bronze bits, or pennies, are the lowest denomination of currency.
