I think it's more like 160 pounds of coins is one pound. I'm not 100% sure of that number though. [[User:ALKALOIDS|justin]] <sup>[[User talk:ALKALOIDS|talk]]</sup> 00:05, 28 November 2006 (EST)

I'm wondering if "silver" is a proper noun, and the 'name' of the coin, similar to an American dollar or a British pound or the ancient Roman denarius. This is what I always had assumed. The only reference that points to this directly is when you look at a pile of coins, the messaging reads "There are X coins there.\The silver is the coin of the realm, accepted by most Elanthian merchants." Promissory notes also note values as "X silver" rather than "X silver coin(s)". Though, the fact that "X silver(s)" is not used is a leaning in the other direction. Hard to tell. Might be good to get clarification on this on the official message boards and see what comes of it. [[User:Anshou|Oliver]] <sup>[[User talk:Anshou|Talk]]</sup> 11:36, 11 February 2007 (EST)

Probably not a bad idea. Although, I'm still leaning towards keeping the article's title "silver coin," even if that is the case. - [[User:BELATHUS|Andy]] <sup>[[User talk:BELATHUS|talk]]</sup> 12:16, 11 February 2007 (EST)
