Oh wow, Ruins RBCI has its own thread now?

Tarnished Ducat gives $1, unlike Forged Ducat.  Arguably, yours is closer to being balanced with other ruins.  Gaining a useless card that lets you trash a less bad card when you gain it is sort of fair, and still better than Ruined Village.

This would be more likely to be viable if it gave you a +Buy Token.  Like a Marketer, or whatever you wanted to call them.  Like maybe if there aren't good alternatives, you take this as-is to deal with Estates and occasionally Copper if you don't need the $1.  But it doesn't look sustainable or appealing as a terminal Silver otherwise.

That would certainly make it a better analogue to Recruiter.

Coffersmith
Action
$4

Coffers produce an extra $1 this turn.

That's actually sort of interesting, but way underpriced, and probably needs a way to guarantee Coffers are already in the game.  I'm sure there's something in the game that makes this super strong, but I forget which card gives ALL OF THE COFFERS.

The trouble is that if it gave +1 Coffers, it might be too weak by itself to be worth it.  But then again, Rats is allowed to exist, so there's that.
