Gross features of a single Alliance Token (AW currency).

Here's a 3D printed version the size of a US half dollar. All AW currency is made of polymerite. Because of the exotic materials and immensely intricate anti-forgery features (which I'm too lazy to depict in the print), the few tokens of pocket change carried by the missionaries are worth billions during their first year on Earth, which comes in handy when Lodestar decides to fabricate a mech and when they build the first mass router. Ironically, with the opening of the trunk between Erickson and Wayfarers' Haven, the value of the currency drops by several orders of magnitude as Sol and Focus become more economically interconnected and polymerite ceases to be rare on Earth.

All denominations are designed to be distinguished immediately both visually and tactilely.

Here's an AW military standard container like the one Tod keeps his stuff in. It's eventually going to be on casters and have more inset handles designed to be gripped by the tail, which I guess makes them “tailals”.
