When I was little (well, littler :-) I used the yellow transparent 1x1 rounds
(dots) - my cousin and I had a currency system we used for our games. 2 red
trans. dots - rubies - were equal to one clear dot (a diamond). Trans yellow
dots were gold (OK, we didn't think about *solid* gold ;-), trans greens were
emeralds, trans blue were sapphires, and so forth...
