An Assassins' coin

The Assassins' coins were coins smuggled into New Orleans and the Louisiana Bayou by foreign smugglers in the 18th century.

History

The coins reached New Orleans and Lousiana Bayou in the pockets of smugglers. The Assassin Aveline de Grandpré beat up these smugglers throughout Louisiana to acquire the coins, amassing a vast collection.[1]

After gathering a certain amount of the coins, Aveline exchanged them at a tailor's shop for the Bayou Hunter outfit.[1]

Behind the scenes

Collecting the coins came available in the sequence 4 and can be found only if Aveline is in Assassin Persona. To collect the coins, the player must identify the smuggler using eagle vision and kill him in order to loot the coins.

The coins feature the text "Hispaniarum Rex" – Latin for "King of the Spanish", pointing to a Spanish origin – as well as the year 1788.

Strangely, the coins feature the logo of the Abstergo Industries, while the last coins were collected in 1777, 160 years prior to the company's founding. Despite the coins' Templar connotation, the reason behind their title is due to them being collected by Aveline while wearing her Assassin outfit.
