Asdar's hundreds of nations issue currencies with gold being the favored coin. Most countries use a mixed system of gold, silver, and bronze coinage. The ancient Ithradite Dwarves are credited with inventing the use of the round metallic disk of gold or 'coin' which they called the 'stater,' sometime (ca 1660 AS) in the second millennium before Salmakhamer. Up until that time, rulers and great houses paid their large debts using gold ingots when they did not make payments in kind.
Copper, electrum, and platinum are uncommon. Copper is considered too rude for coinage, although it is often molten into ingots for ready use. Iron and tin are also molten into ingots for ready use in industry. Platinum coins are sometimes minted for commemorative purposes, such as to celebrate the rule of a prince or the birth of an heir. Electrum coins were somewhat common in the Jaggudorns before the Yophenthean Empire.
