Watching a lot of DS9 lately and am curious about latinum (gold pressed) raitos. I’ve heard bar, strip and slip.
Are there more?
How do they translate (ie: how many slips = 1 strip).?
Answer
Latinum comes in 4 denominations slips, strips, bars, and bricks (from smallest to largest).
From the Memory-Alpha entry on Latinum:
- Slips - One hundred slips of gold-pressed latinum are equal to one strip.
- Strips - Twenty strips are equal to one bar of latinum.
- Bars - The exchange rate from bars to bricks is unknown.
- Bricks
One bar of gold-pressed latinum is equal to twenty strips which is equal to 2,000 slips of latinum.
