The crown (Aspiranto: krono; Alexandrian: couronne; sign: ₵) is the currency and legal tender of Meckelnburgh. Their Royal Majesty’s Bank of Meckelnburgh (BankMB) issues banknotes, the Royal Meckelnburgh Post issues postal notes, and the Royal Meckelnburgh Mint issues coins, Maundy money, and bullion issues.
The smaller denomination, one-sixtieth of a crown, is a heller (Aspiranto: helero; Alexandrian: haller; sign: ħ). The MOS–4 code of the currency used by banks and financial institutions is MCK. The unofficial codes SMC and ISC refer to issues of Salem and Iselande crowns, respectively.
