<p>[QUOTE=&quot;maridvnvm, post: 7585092, member: 31620&quot;]The Owl had become a trading currency across a large geographical area. So irrespective of where you were you could spend your Owl regardless of the exact currency being produced locally. If mercenaries travelled extensively then they wanted currency that they could take with them and spend elsewhere. Being paid in whatever the local standard was became too complicated. The you wanted mercenaries and they wanted to be paid in Owls then you could either get hold of Athens issue Owls to pay them or make your own.....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
