The Treasury has announced the establishment of a Royal Mint at Highdenn. The facility will be dedicated to producing three new coins for the Principality of Sylvestria. The coins planned for production include a 1 LETZ aluminum coin, a 5 LETZ aluminum coin, and a 10 LETZ copper coin. The hammered coinage will be produced on site using
Sylvestrian labor and commercially sourced dies. Designs for the coins have not been revealed. The first production run will begin in December 2024 and continue through May 2025 and will have a total face value of 1250 LETZ. Samples of each coin will be retained by the Treasury for archival purposes while the remainder will enter the local Sylvestrian economy.Â
This second series of coinage replaces the original "Lone Pine" coins which were removed from circulation earlier this year. Sylvestria's currency, the LETZ, is named for the Sylvestrian Local Economic Trade Zone. The LETZ is tied to the local market value of 100 grams of buckwheat.
