Currency Conversion

Dungeons & Dragons 5e uses a standard currency system with four main types:

  • Gold Pieces (GP) - The most valuable coin
  • Silver Pieces (SP) - Worth 10 copper pieces
  • Copper Pieces (CP) - The smallest denomination
  • Electrum Pieces (EP) - Worth 5 silver pieces

Conversion Formulas

1 GP = 10 SP = 100 CP = 2 EP

Total GP = (Gold × 1) + (Silver × 0.1) + (Copper × 0.01) + (Electrum × 0.5)

For example, if you have 3 GP, 20 SP, 50 CP, and 1 EP, the total is calculated as:

3 GP + (20 SP × 0.1 GP/SP) + (50 CP × 0.01 GP/CP) + (1 EP × 0.5 GP/EP) = 3 + 2 + 0.5 + 0.5 = 6 GP
