[OT] coins for bases

Beth replied to my original post (my replies 
with [Tomb]):

Boy some of those figs are going to have 
bases worth more
than they are ;P

[Tomb] Note that if they make RSA figures, I 
will NOT repeat NOT be basing them on 
Krugerands. 

Well we long since abolished 1c pieces and 
they were nowhere near big enough 
anywhere. Best bet these days would be a 
20c piece (or 10c at a pinch) - 5c is our 
smallest current denomination and it'd be
way too small!

[Tomb]: You did away with pennies? Wow, 
what an idea. Except that would just 
encourage the $5 coin. The $2 coin was 
bad enough. I just emptied some collected 
change out of my car and got nearly $30 
($20 for the 'Mericans out there, $33-35 for 
the Aussies). That's just too darn much value 
to have in loose change. I'll need to start 
carrying a big ass purse like AD&D 
characters and maybe a broadsword to 
protect it from cutpurses...
