Why old currency? A hundred Japanese Yen is worth about 0.75 euro. But I
see what you mean..
You could put something else on the scale, a human life, a nuclear
bomb.. Or a cluster for distributed POV-Ray rendering! :)

We use both regular stones and shiny stones, in addition to special
wooden bricks, pearls and gems (which are the most valuable). Sometimes
hitting the shop owner with you club can get you the stuff for free!
I'll scan some money tomorrow, if I can avoid scratching my scanner
glass plate that is..
