The MainUnit was the currency of place from startYear to endYear. It was subdivided into x subunits....

Won (pronounced like the past tense of the English verb (to) win) is a cognate of the Chinese yuan and Japanese yen. The won was subdivided into 100 jeon (전; 錢; McCune-Reischauer: chŏn; Revised Romanization: jeon)...

This coin was popular among American colonists, who called it the Spanish dollar, the name having derived from a German coin of similar size and composition known as the thaler.

It's pegged to so-and-so currency...
It seems that very few articles have information about M1, M2, or any money supply information. Currency articles aren't just for collectors, but the people who are interested in economics too.

Introductory/explanatory text above the specification table.

Specification table

• Column #1: Images.

• Column #1a: Image of the obverse of the coin. Black background images are preferred. Scale images at 2.5 pixels per millimeter. If the width is unknown, fall back to 60 pixels per side. Use black background in the cell - however, if the image itself has a background that is neither transparent or black (e.g. the images of Ukrainian hryvnia), use the background that agrees with the background in the image.
• Column #1b: Image of the reverse of the coin. Same rules as the obverse.

• Column #2: Value of the coin. Use symbol if possible. This should be linked to the separate article dedicated to the coin type (if such exists).
• Column #3: Technical parameters.

• Column #3d: Composition. Use alloy names (such as aluminium bronze) and composition in % for non-precious metals. Use ‰ fineness for coins containing precious metals. If the coin is bi-metal, describe Ring: first, and then Center:. If the composition of either the ring or the center is the same as one of the mono-metal coin, just say "(as $xyz)" to reduce clutter. If the coin is tri-metal or more, go from outside to inside.

• Column #4: Description.

• Column #4a: Description of the edge of the coin. In general, it can be smooth (plain), milled (serrated) or incused (ornaments or insriptions). In the latter case, describe the type of ornament or cite the inscription.
• Column #4b: Description of the obverse of the coin. Omit words like "portrait of", "famous writer ...", or the date of birth/death. Such information is best left to its own article. If such article does not exist, this rule can be relaxed.
• Column #4c: Description of the reverse of the coin. Same rule as the obverse.

• Column #5: Important dates.

• Column #5a: Date of minting. In general, this is the year indicated on the coin.
• Column #5b: Date of issue. This is the date when the coin was released into circulation by law (since when acceptance is obligatory in public cash flow).
• Column #5c: Date of withdrawal. This is the date when the coin was withdrawn from circulation by law, acceptance is no longer obligatory in public cash flow. However, in most cases withdrawn coins still can be exchanged to current money in banks.
• Column #5d: Date of lapse. After this date neither commercial banks nor the central bank is obligated to exchange the withdrawn coin to current.

In general, do not include withdrawal or lapse date if current. And do not split into upper and lower halves if there is only 1 column in this column group. See New Taiwan dollar for example.

• Additional columns
• Others

• Each row should represent a coin type. Subtypes should be described in the separate article dedicated to the main coin type. To decide whether a coin is a type or a subtype, world coin catalogs are good references.
• Use color template ((Coin-copper-color)), ((Coin-silver-color)), and ((Coin-yellow-color)) to fill the row (except for the image cells) corresponding to the composition of the coin.
• Sort for good overview.

• Sort coins into series - common design, year of first minting or coin catalogs can help.
• Sort series into regular, circulating commemorative and non-circulating commemorative issues.

• A regular issue is typically minted in more than one years in large quantities and it primarily serves as payment medium.
• A circulating commemorative issue is typically minted in one year (generally on an anniversary) in large quantities and also serves as payment medium. These coins might have a design more or less similar to the regular issues.
• A (non-circulating) commemorative issue is typically minted in one year (generally on an anniversary) in small and limited quantity and not released into circulation but sold to collectors (usually for higher price than its nominal value - however, they are legal tender at their nominal value). These coins usually bear a special design - distinctive from the regular issues. High nominal value and using precious metal is also common.

• Sort coins of the same regular issue into ascending order of their nominal value. Coins of the same value should be sorted into ascending order of their first minted year.

• At the end of the table use ((Standard coin table notice)) with appropriate parameters.

Examples

The following example omits banknote images: this style may be used if the banknotes are copyrighted, the issuing authority does not allow reproductions without permission, and no fair use rationale has been set up (for example, banknotes of the pound sterling).

The following example includes banknotes images: this style may be used if the banknotes are ineligible for copyright protection, the copyright protection has expired, or the issuing authority allows images of copyrighted banknotes (for example, the euro banknotes).

Syntax

Column		Item	Example syntax	Example output(s)		Notes
1	1a	Image of the front of the banknote	style="background:#000;text-align:right"|[[File:20 Israeli new shekel in 2017 Obverse.jpg|90px]]			Scale images at 0.7 pixels per millimetre: if the width is unknown, use 100 pixels for the longest side. The background is black, and the front image is aligned right (unless it is the widest banknote in the table). Omit this column if the banknote is copyrighted, reproduction is not allowed, and no fair use rationale has been set up (for example, banknotes of the pound sterling): see COM:CUR on the Wikimedia Commons for currency copyright rules by country.
	1b	Image of the back of the banknote	style="background:#000"|[[File:20 Israeli new shekel in 2017 Reverse.jpg|90px]]
2		Denomination	[[20 new shekel banknote|₪20]]	₪20		Use the currency symbol, if possible. The value should also be wikilinked to the article for that denomination or design, if it exists. Spell out "million" if there is more than one such denomination. Spell out "billion", "trillion", etc. to reduce pressure on the width of other columns. Scientific notation may be used for denominations of one billion or higher.
			1,000 kr	1,000 kr
			[[Bank of England £1,000,000 note|£1 million]]	£1 million
			$100&nbsp;trillion<br/>(((val|e=14|p=$)))	$100 trillion ($1014)
3		Dimensions	129 × 71&nbsp;mm	129 × 71 mm		Use millimetres except in the United States, where inches are used. The width comes before the height, and the multiplication sign (×) is used instead of the letter x. For information on how to type the multiplication sign, see Multiplication sign § Typing the character: alternatively, open the Special characters panel while editing, and select × under "Symbols".
4		Main colour	style="background:#FF8080;width:0"| ||Red		Red	See § Colour table for a list of commonly used colours. Use a few words, or "multicolour" if there is more than one dominant colour. Use spelling of "colour" or "color", as preferred by the users of this currency: see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (spelling) for more information. width:0 should be omitted after the first entry, because the style attribute cascades down to subsequent rows.
5	5a	Description of the front of the banknote	Text	Rachel Bluwstein, the poem Kinneret in microprinting, palm tree branches in the background		A summary of the main feature(s) on the front and back of the banknote, as well as the watermark, separated by commas. Features that appear in multiple denominations in the table may be wikilinked on the first instance, and left plain in subsequent instances (for example, banknotes of the fourth Zimbabwean dollar). Use "As portrait" if the watermark is the same as the portrait on the front.
	5b	Description of the back of the banknote	Text or ((n/a|''None''))	View of the Sea of Galilee shoreline, segment from the poem Perhaps it was nothing…
	5c	Watermark	Text, ''As portrait'', or ((n/a|''None''))	As portrait
6	6a	Date of printing	Date or ((ubl|Date|Date))	2017		The date that appears on the banknote, including the copyright notice and imprint. Use ((ubl|date|date)) if the banknote has more than one printing date. The Gregorian date appears in brackets if the banknote uses a different calendar (for example, Hijri or Minguo). Omit this column if all banknotes in the table have no date at all.
			[[Minguo calendar|Minguo]] 89<br/>(2000)	Minguo 89 (2000)
	6b	Date of issue	Date	23 November 2017		The date that the issuing authority introduced the banknote into circulation.
	6c	Date of withdrawal	Date, ''Current'', or ''Outmoded (legal tender)''	Current		The date when the banknote stopped being legal tender. Use "Outmoded (legal tender)" if the banknote is still legal tender, but the issuing authority takes them out of circulation regardless of condition (for example, banknotes of the US dollar, where demonetisation is illegal). Omit this column if all banknotes in the table are legal tender, and the issuing authority puts undamaged banknotes back in circulation.
	6d	Date of lapse	Date or ''Current''	Current		The date when the banknote became worthless, where not even the issuing authority exchanges them for current notes (for example, banknotes of the French franc). Keep this column if the issuing authority cancelled a scheduled demonetisation (for example, the 6th series of the Swiss franc). Omit this column if the issuing authority exchanges all banknotes indefinitely (for example, banknotes of the Bank of England). Omit this column if all banknotes in the table are legal tender.
7+		Additional information (for example: language used, references)	User defined	User defined		Additional columns should be kept to a minimum, because it is possible to describe nearly all of the other information in context. The header of the reference column may be abbreviated to "Ref.", by using this syntax: ((abbr|Ref.|References))

The table ends with ((Standard banknote table notice)) at the bottom row: set standard_scale=yes if the table has images, and also sp=us if the table features banknotes from the United States, where the dimensions of banknotes are in inches instead of millimetres.

Use ((exchange rate)) for articles about circulating currencies. The basic syntax is ((exchange rate|ABC)), where ABC is the currency code.

• It is considered rude to put baht banknotes in a wallet that sits in the back pocket, as this allows someone to sit on the image of the King, which is considered highly disrespectful. Similarly, stepping on a baht banknote (or coin) is considered disrespectful.

• related/sibling currency (if any and when appropriate) (i.e. a currency that share the same successor, or the same predecesor)

(e.g. CFA franc and CFP franc)

• Do NOT include articles of the issuing authority/central bank if already in infobox
