[RFC] Hard Currency?
 
#8
Eh. In Japan they don't have that issue - most games are a pricey 100 Yen a pop. But then again, that is where most of them debut. *Shrugs* Either way, they don't have a 20 or 25 yen denomination - theirs goes 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, and 500 for coin, and then bills go 1000, 5000, 10,000, and 50,000. Very straightforward, very logical.

With this in mind, Ben would probably push for $100 and $500 denominations. As we're going for no 'paper' bills we can do plaques instead - those should look very nice all lined up in a brief case. Suggested forward-faces: Galileo - first to give conclusive scientific proof that the Earth was round and actually circled the sun (and not the other way around), and Sir Isaac Newton - the creation of Newtonian Physics, which are still in use, especially in space.
Roughrider reverse-sides would probably feature ground-breaking devices of astro/aeronautics (no particular order): The Wright Flier,the Bell X-1, the Blackbird, the Concorde, an Apollo rocket on it's pad, the NASA Shuttle Prototype Enterprise, Burt Rutan's Space Ship One, the Hindenburg (her demise aside, her and her sister ships had impeccable safety records), the Heinkel He 178 (first practical jet-propelled aircraft), and last (but certainly not least) Vostok 1.
