  Wouldn't an Issaries or equivalent devotee be able to value coinage with ease, instantly being able to tell if he's being short-changed?   If that same person were the bureaucrat who was checking the output of a mint, it would be very hard to adulterate the coinage without bribing him *a lot* - which means he's the one who gets checked regularly for irregularities in his income.
  In any magical world, shorting the coinage isn't something I see as a problem. OTOH, if there's PCs involved... ;) Even then, it wouldn't last long.

Any opinion expressed is mine, no matter where I got it from, and I retain all rights to it, should it prove to be of any value.
