How the Platinum Coin is worth $22.5M – Terraria (Math Warning)

How expensive is the Platinum coin? Well, you probably read the title so you know how much, but how did I get to that number? Well, to get the value of the coin we need to get the weight, and to get the weight we need to get the volume.

Looking at the face of the coin, we can count 44 pixels on the face of the coin, giving it a face area of 44 square pixels. If you look at all the coins’ spinning animations, you may notice that all of them are actually two pixels thick.

While the Platinum Coin doesn’t have a part where it directly faces the camera, we will assume it is also 2 pixels thick. 88 square pixels times 1/64 cubic feet per pixel gives us 1.375 cubic feet of platinum.

1.375 cubic feet is 38,935.66 cubic centimeters, and at 21.45 g/ccm we now can say that this coin weighs 835.17 kg or 26,851 troy ounces. At around $840/ozt, this means our coin is worth roughly $22.5 million.

  1. Well yes it would be worth that in today’s society however it isn’t that much in terraria. unless the clentaminator is actually $45 million

    If it is actually that much we spend $10,000,000 just to get our weapons to become broken. Which makes the goblin tinkerer out to be far more of a scam than we could have imagined.

    I don’t expect you to read this and I feel I spent too long writing this.

  2. But how rare is platinum in terraria considering the size of the coin compared to how much you can make out of all the ore and how common it is underground
