It is not necessarily related to coins, but her background in artefacts and past languages may help all the same.
Game Instructions: She will always be helpful, but a success here will make her more so. This will produce Laboratory Research rather than Numismatic Research.

With some cajoling and flattery, she throws in a few extra observations for good measure.Description summary:
The first paragraph varies with the current .
Object | First Paragraph |
---|---|
1320 | She knows the coinage of that time and place. Little else, perhaps, but one can tell a great deal from currency. |
1340 | She knows the contemporary coinage, which is admittedly of limited relevance. But perhaps she may still glean something. |
1350 | The metal isn't steel. It also isn't any [...] typically used for coins. But she wouldn't be surprised if it were something more valuable. Both the feel of the material and the stamping of the sun on the front remind her of the currencies of the Bazaar. |
