Coins as mandate goods[edit]

Idle thought... coins are created as stacks of 500, right? And can be minted out of any metal, right? So could you fulfill a (large) mandate to produce items of (rare) metals by running a single minting job? Might just be a little exploit-ey... but if you're like me, and don't like justice being meted out... DeMatt 22:59, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Idle thought... have you ever had a mandate for more than five of an item? One Gervase 08:05, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

For the love of god do not make coins[edit]

They are terrible for a fortress. All dwarves do is stack, move, stack, move coins all day long. unsigned comment by Mrbobbyg

Specifically, the economy never activates in version 0.31, so once coins are hauled to a coin stockpile, dwarves will never touch them again. --Quietust 13:47, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
