If you use 1 rubel coins, sure. Personally, I prefer to splurge on TP.

Let me know once the 50 rubel note is cheaper than a sheet of TP.

I'm pretty sure the metal value of a 1 ruble coin is worth a substantially more in it's weight in metal than 1 ruble

Double-checked, and you're right.

The same can be said about the US penny and nickel. Both cost at least double their value to produce.

While true, that's the lowest value coin we have. What's a Kopeck worth vs it's metal value?

[-] monk@lemmy.unboiled.info 1 points 1 year ago

I remember it used to be 1/13 of its metal value, but I can't Google it up quickly and the ratio has probably changed since then anyway.

I'm totally imagining the coin being like the 3 seashells on hard mode.
