@ragtime I have 'imagination of CG artist' perk. I can see what is hidden behind any common type of censorship. Don't ask me to imagine fanservice though.
@YungMassah yes and no. He's not hiding it since people already knows he has great magical potential but he's hiding the fact that he's much stronger than they think.

Not if the value is backed up by its own material. Silver is silver, it being minted just serves as a simplistic guarantee that "this is indeed silver".
Though that being said, coins in medieval times were rarely 100% silver/gold etc. But the value was still not based on a "guarantee" as it is today with physical currency.
Silver is always silver, but a paper sheet that says "100" is nothing unless someone guarantees you that the paper sheet is worth equal to something else and can be traded for that "something else".
