The official currency of the Freethinker Commonwealth is the Mintel (FMT) since independence from the Midlonian Empire in 1885. The Mintel is the only official Legal Tender within the Commonwealth, and is printed (in decade-long cycles) by the Freethinker Central Reserve, the independent National (or Central) Bank for The Freethinkers.
