This spell consumes a single coin or metal disc and replaces it with two identical coins. The coins are absolutely identical, not just similar in type, and so scratches, special markings, and the like are reproduced. The spell destroys any dweomer that may be in existence on the coins. The spell is silent, but a faint, momentary glow accompanies the permanent change it causes. Each time the spells is cast, the caster must make a saving throw vs. spell. If the saving throw succeeds, the spell is executed as intended and nothing untoward occurs. If the saving throw fails, the caster suffers the permanent loss of 1 hit point, but gains 2dl2 additional exact duplicate coins out of thin air. Although this magic affects coinage of any size and value, it can only work on metal, not on gems, wood trade tokens, or coinage made of a combination of materials where at least one component is nonmetallic.

The material component of this spell is a single coin or metal disc.

Notes: Granted by the lesser power Waukeen Merchant's Friend of the Forgotten Realms setting.
