==Fictional non-decimal currencies== {{Main|Fictional currency}} *[[Harry Potter]]: 1 [[Money in Harry Potter|Galleon]] = 17 Sickles = 493 Knuts *[[Pern]]: [[Mark (Pern)|Mark]], no name for subdivisions, but occurs in denominations of {{Fraction|1=|2=1|3=32}}, {{Fraction|1=|2=1|3=16}}, {{Fraction|1=|2=1|3=8}}, {{Fraction|1=|2=1|3=4}}, {{Fraction|1=|2=1|3=2}}, 1, 2, 5, and 10 marks (and a few 100 marks for large transactions) *''[[Simon the Sorcerer II: The Lion, the Wizard and the Wardrobe|Simon the Sorcerer II]]'': 1 Royal Crest = 5 Silver Sovereigns = 25 Dollars = 50 Queen's Shillings = 100 Crowns = 400 Grouts = 6400 Pence, additionally 1 King's Shilling = 3 Crowns, and 1 Gold Sovereign = 3 Silver Sovereigns. The currency system is intentionally made inconveniently complex and only ever used at one point of the game. *''[[Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]'': The Triganic Pu, subdivided into eight Ningis. The Ningi is a "triangular rubber coin six thousand eight hundred miles a side" and hence nobody has ever owned enough Ningis to own one Pu. The Ningi is not negotiable currency, as the banks refuse to deal in small change. *''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'': 1 brick of gold-pressed latinum = 20 bars = 400 strips = 40,000 slips.
