Eastern Coalition currency

The sitan is the official currency used in the Eastern Coalition, including Elam, Babylonia, Assyria, Dilmun, and Magan, though Lullubum still has not adapted it as the economy of the country is still very basic and not ready for such a change. The Eastern Coalition's central bank as well as the main mint of the coins is located in Sippar, Babylonia, though smaller local mints are also open in the other kingdoms. Unlike the shematy which is a copper coin, the sitan is a silver coin, as the mountains controlled by the Lullubi contain many silver mines. A sitan is currently worth around 1,78 Egyptian shematys. It also has a smaller subdivision, the shushtan, which is 1/60th of the sitan and is used more for everyday purchases, while the sitan is used for larger orders and contracts. The sitan was introduced in 76 AEE and is quickly spreading through most cities in the EC, with the mayors adapting it at a rapid pace. 
Some examples of the value of the sitan:
An average day's wage for a construction worker in Babylonia is 5 shushtan. A good quality Elamite sword is 20 shushtan. A professional chariot, along with the two horses for it, is 8 sitan. An average apartment in Babylon is 14 sitan.
