Hello,

 

Currently on coin and banknote pages we have a value that is getting more and more harmonise thanks to this great improvement.

Now it's where I still see an improvment to be done Example:

On the Value field I have: 3 sous = 3 Sols (3⁄20), ok but what does that mean?

On this page I have no explaination, but luckily on this one I have it and it's:

 

2 Deniers = 1 Double • 3 Deniers = 1 Liard • 12 Deniers = 1 Gros = 1 Sol (Sou) • 20 Sols (Sous) = 2 Testons = 1 Livre

 

So, my idea whould be to display it on the Currency value.

When you put your mouse on “Livre Tournois (1721-1810)” it would display a small windows with the divisions:

2 Deniers = 1 Double • 3 Deniers = 1 Liard • 12 Deniers = 1 Gros = 1 Sol (Sou) • 20 Sols (Sous) = 2 Testons = 1 Livre

 

This way directly on the page you can understand what you are looking for, without going back and forth to the country page.

Always look on the bright side of life!
