Rupee

The small, glittering stones called Rupees are the currency of Hyrule. The inhabitants of Hyrule seem to be very sloppy with their economy, which has resulted in Rupees being found virtually everywhere throughout the land. Monsters that roam the land are also known to be carrying Rupees, which you can get a hold of by slaying the monster.

The colour of the Rupee indicates how much it is worth. Green Rupees are the once that define the scale, and they are worth 1. Blue ones are worth 5 green ones, Red ones are worth 20, Purple are worth 50 and the Silver ones are worth a whopping 100 green ones! The most valuable Rupee however, is the Golden which is worth 200 green ones.
