Background:
Originally Coins of Tamriel is using Copper as replacement for Gold.
I found that Silver is actually the better replacement for Gold.
But each to his own. In the end each coin can have a different value.
For my case it would be
Gold: 4
Silver: 1
Copper: 0,25
To avoid entering floating point, I suggest to multiply input with 100:
Real Gold value: 400 / 100
Real Silver value: 100 / 100
Real Copper: 25 / 100
This way Silver is used as Gold Replacement, smaller values are still found in loot and gold remains prestige, but not as much to remain usable for quests and so that sold houses have a higher but not too high value.
This is an easy way to reduce the amount of value the PC finds and motivates to do quests as income source.
