feat(currency): copper/silver/gold replace the coin

The three denominations are move tokens, not stored buckets — there is one
integer, so change-making never arises. The deserter is down to 47c: under a
silver, so he cannot cover a bed and the player sees it on turn one.

A parity test guards the code-side ratios against the content-side ids.
