Coin of account

Coin of Account is a way for people to keep track of how much money they have. You can think of it like getting coins from the bank or from the store. You get coins or tokens that represent the money you have. Then, when you buy something, you give coins away, and when you earn money, you get coins. That way, you always know how much money you have - it's like having a wallet full of coins that you can count up to figure out how much money you have.
