Copper Coins
by Mike
Copper Coins, a Fabric economy mod, adds three coin types that players convert between at fixed rates, with placeable coin variants and a config option that can switch the feature off.
What it does
Copper Coins offers three types of coin: copper, silver and gold. The coins act as a stable currency in the game, and the mod also adds placeable variants of each coin. Coins are not obtainable through loot tables, so they have to be handed out with admin commands. In practice a server owner decides how players receive them.
Players convert coins between the three types at set rates, with one gold coin equal to 20 silver coins and one silver coin equal to 5 copper coins. Shift and right click converts coins downward, and right click converts them upward. The Conversion Rates and Conversion Types settings control how many coins each conversion yields and which coin goes to which, and the Disable Conversions setting removes conversions entirely.
The mod is published for Fabric only, on 1.20.1, 1.20.2, 1.20.3 and 1.20.4, with 1.2.4 for 1.20.2 as the latest file. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.

Honestly this mod was mainly made for me but I decided why not share it with the public. The mod offers three types of coins, copper, silver, gold, and adds the placeable variants.
