Poor House, a virtual coin card.

Virtual coin, also called virtual money, refers to non-Treasure sources of buying power, especially Action cards.

Non-terminal virtual-coin Actions are often classified as either disappearing money or Peddler variants based on whether they are stop cards or not. Terminal virtual-coin Actions are almost always stop cards.

[edit] Strategy

Action-based $ generation is important for certain types of draw engines, for example draw-to-X. Also refer to Engines which benefit from disappearing money.

Additionally, Action-based payload synergizes with Throne room variants which are often unable to be used on Treasures.

[edit] List of cards that offer virtual coin

There are a tremendous number of cards that offer virtual coin. Fate cards provide virtual coin when they reveal The Field's GiftThe Field's Gift.jpg or The Forest's GiftThe Forest's Gift.jpg.
