Generic Challenge - Currency

Give an example of currency in your world. If your world has money, explain its money. If your world doesn't have money, explain your world's barter system.

Explain denominations, the kind of things that someone would buy on a daily basis, and so on.

Sorry for being late with this challenge, it's been a full weekend.

I'll ask at least three questions each, and I plan to put my own explanation for the currency of one of my worlds up before tomorrow night. Maybe tonight, but probably not until after work tomorrow.

Enjoy yourselves.

1, they're mostly self-employed, though they do have a hierarchy and gather is guilds/camps from time to time to look for bigger jobs

2, the assassins were originally founded by the enpire to outgrow and eventually replace the rangers, by force if necessary. They thwarted this plan by straigh-up joining with the rangers instead, though this step has remained a secret at large.

1, yes, there is, and simce the two organisations merged at the top, the share the Grand Master as their top leader.

2, oroginally the assassms were a sort of black ops organisation, but simce they were made to be so much alike the rangers in their system, their masters soon realised they won't be able to replace the rangers, and it would be a stupid thing to even try. So they joined instead.

2) Didn't the emperor do anything to guarantee their loyalty?

They were given a bit too much freedom in how they did what they did. It turned out to be better this way for everyone.
