🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's from 2015, check if your Skyrim version is pre-Special Edition or use a mod manager to handle compatibility.
If you use other coin mods, load this one after them to ensure the Septim names take priority.
Test in a saved game — if coins don't show as Septims, try a new character or verify load order.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros

- Fixes a lore pet peeve that's bugged Elder Scrolls fans for years.
- Simple concept, likely a drop-in replacer — no complex setup.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2015 — might not play nice with the latest Skyrim patches or other mods.
