Copper Bar
Refined bar of copper.
Notes
A refined bar of copper, useful as a building block, a crafting ingredient, or as backing for minted currency. Its primary use is as a mid-tier material for advanced construction, such as Foundations and frames, and for electrical components like Wiring. Because copper bars mint into a high number of coins per item, keeping a few on hand for creating a minted currency supply can be practical for a settlement’s economy.
