📋 About This Mod
Ever wondered why you find Imperial Septims buried deep in Ancient Nord barrows or Dwemer ruins? Why are the coins in Skyrim named "Gold" instead of "Septim" as in previous Elder Scrolls titles? This mod aims to remedy these issues.
This mod is the official continuation of the original Skyrim Coin Replacer by TheDamned.
Current Features: All official DLCs supported. Septims can now be found instead of generically named Gold. Haralds can now be found in Ancient Nord barrows and their inhabitants (Draugr) instead of Septims. Dumacs can now be found in Dwemer ruins and their inhabitants (Falmer) instead of Septims. NEW IN v1. 2 - Ulfrics and associated lore books can now be found in Windhelm. There is a rumor the thieves guild has plans for this new coinage. Haralds are worth up to 3 Septims each and 75 of them can be melted down to form a Silver Ingot at the smelter. Dumacs are worth up to 5 Septims each and 75 of them can be melted down to form an Ebony Ingot at the smelter. NEW IN v1. 2 - Ulfrics are worth up to 2 Septims each and 75 of them can be melted down to form a Silver Ingot at the smelter. * All of these coins can be gifted to children or spouses.
Haralds and Dumacs are weightless and cannot be used directly at merchants for goods. General merchants will buy them as collectibles or blacksmiths will buy them to melt into ingots.
This mod has been meticulously cleaned and is free of technical errors. All changes from the unofficial patches have been carried forward. The unofficial patches are not required for this mod to work. This mod does not currently use scripts.

Q: Why are the coins named Haralds and Dumacs? A: Those were the names given by TheDamned for the original mod. I saw no reason to change them. Lore for each can be found here and here.
Q: Will my other mods also use the new coins? A: As long as they use appropriate vanilla leveled lists any added creatures should drop the pr

- Huge community backing (11,783 endorsements) — this is a mod people actually use.
- Fixes a lore pet peeve that's bugged Elder Scrolls fans for years.
- Simple concept, likely a drop-in replacer — no complex setup.

- Last updated in 2015 — might not play nice with the latest Skyrim patches or other mods.
- Purely cosmetic — if you want new coin textures or gameplay changes, this isn't it.

💡 Beginner Tips
