# Gold Coins

Gold coins function as collectibles and in-game currency. They have both a *face value* and an *intrinsic value*. The face value is marked on the coin and the intrinsic value is determined by the amount of [infused](https://whitepaper.paydirt.game/paydirt-gold/infusion) [paydirt-gold](https://whitepaper.paydirt.game/paydirt-gold "mention"). A third type of value, artifact value or numismatic value, may also be created by the rarity of certain limited edition coins. Values of coins are expressed in [paydirt-dollars](https://whitepaper.paydirt.game/paydirt-dollars "mention").
