The gold crown and the copper kopek are the currency of the valley of Mordavia. The exchange rate is 100 kopeks to one crown. Each coin weighs one quark.
The Hero begins Quest for Glory IV with 1 crown.
Earning Money[]
The Hero can earn money in the following manners:
Finding Money[]
Much of the Hero's money early in the game will be found through finding caches in various places:
- Three skeletons at the beginning of the game will have money on them.
- Five crowns can be found in the tree stump at the gates to the town.
- Thirty crowns can be found in the left-hand lantern in Erana's Garden.
- Each of the two safes in the Thieves' Guild has money in it.
- Money can be found in Castle Borgov in the following places: in the safe, in the cupboards in the same room as the safe, and in the chest in the bedroom.
Killing Monsters[]
The following random monsters carry money if searched:
- Revenants (small number of kopeks)
- Chernovy Wizards (crowns and kopeks)
- Wraith barrows tend to contain a significant amount of money. One exceptionally powerful wraith has a hoard of 150 crowns.
Thievery[]
- In Nikolai's House, money can be found in both sides of his wardrobe, the chest at the foot of his bed, and in the desk on the lower floor.
- In the Burgomeister's Office, money can be found in the desk.
Spending Money[]
Money can be spent in three places in Mordavia:
- General Store
- Hotel Mordavia
- Gypsy Camp, given to Magda for a fortunetelling reading.
Behind the Scenes[]
- The crown is the currency of several real-life European countries, including the Czech Republic, Denmark, and Iceland, although in those countries it's known as a "krona" or a simliar derivation. The kopeck (spelled with a "c") is 1/100th of a ruble in countries like Bulgaria and Russia.
Trivia[]
- The Hero begins with one crown likely due to a programming situation that the Money Pouch does not exist as an item unless something is in it.
