Fifty Dubloon Coin.

The dubloon is the official currency of Krawk Island, first introduced on 23 August, 2001. Most notably, they are used to pay for training sessions at the Swashbuckling Academy - in this respect, they are comparable to Codestones - but are also the sole method of payment accepted in the Krawk Island Petpet shop Little Nippers and in The Golden Dubloon restaurant. Most Krawk Island games, however, deal in Neopoints.

Dubloons, unlike Neopoints, are actual items, in that they appear within the inventory of the owner, and can be traded and stolen in the same way as items, but cannot be stolen in the way Neopoints can. Read more? > · previously featured articles
