The Talent is the name for currency issued by the Marian Hegemony.[1] [2]

Description

Each talent is divided into 10 denarii. Talents come in both silver and gold coins, silver talents in denominations of 1, 3, 5, 10 and 20; gold talents in denominations of 25, 50, 75 and 100. Introduced by Imperator Marius O'Reilly in 3012 and based of the ancient Roman coinage, the denarius comes in denominations of 1, 3 and 5 copper coins.[2]

All coins bear the faces of former Imperators and Caesars; each new ruler has coins struck to commemorate his reign, though older coins remain in circulation. A number on the reverse denotes what each coin is worth. These denominations are available in bills as well. Bills likewise bear portraits of the Caesars, with a Marian privateer superimposed over the Hall of the Senate on the back.[2]

As per 3058 its exchange rate against the C-Bill is 0,1.[1]
