Banknotes of Saintonge (Series XV)
0NQ1X8c.png

Series XV of the Santonian Livre, released in 2019, feature a vertically-oriented front (obverse) and a horizontally-oriented back (reverse). For more information, click here!

The Santonian Livre banknotes are made out of polymer with features to aid the visually-impaired. Common features include a transparent window featuring the logo of Saintonge, a serial number located at two locations, and other security features (see below.) At the obverse is a historical figure from Saintonge's history (of which all but one are actually clerics) and the bible verse "Heureux le peuple dont l’Eternel est Dieu" ("Happy are the people whose God is the Lord." - Psalms 144:15). At the reverse is a historical scene from Saintonge's history and the bible verse Vous ne pouvez pas servir en même temps Dieu et l’Argent ("You cannot serve both God and money." - Matthew 6:24). Both bible verses occurring in the banknotes remind holders that money isn't all that matters, or maybe the Royal Bank of Saintonge really likes to troll people.

Five Livres (£5, 3.33 IBU)

Coins of Saintonge

Santonian coins are relatively simple. Because of Saintonge's aversion to having faces in coins (a byproduct of the Santonian Revolution), the front of the coins only feature the denomination. The back features the logo of Saintonge.

They are based on pre-Syndicalist kross notes in terms of dimensions and style, but with updated reverse designs and mostly new portraits.

Coins of Prydania

5tXEbQC.png

Prydania's current series of Kross coins were introduced in 2018, along with the above bills. They were originally minted in Saintonge. Processes are being undertake to move the printing of the bills and minting of the coins to Prydania, in as timely a manner as would be responsible.
The coins, perhaps due to their minting in Saintonge, reflect the Santonian desire for simplicity. While not sharing Saintonge's distaste for portraits on coins, this series of Prydanian coins features a few standard motifs that lean into the simplistic design aesthetic.
King Tobias III Loðbrók's portrait appears on the x2, x5, x10, and x20 coins, and elements of the Prydanian coat of arms are used throughout the series.

Half Kross (x0.50, 0.082 IBU)
