An Assassins' coin

Note: The events depicted in Assassin's Creed III: Liberation have explicitly been edited by the Abstergo Corporation. Therefore, it is possible that some or all of the following information may have been altered from the truth.

Assassins' coins were coins smuggled into New Orleans and the Louisiana Bayou by foreign smugglers.

During her career as an Assassin, Aveline de Grandpré beat up smugglers throughout Louisiana to acquire the coins, amassing a vast collection.

Trivia

  • The coins feature the text "Hispaniarum Rex" – Latin for "King of the Spains", pointing to a Spanish origin – as well as the year 1788.
  • Strangely, the coins feature the Abstergo Industries logo, while the last coins were collected in 1777, 160 years prior to the company's founding. This is likely an example of one of the edits made by Abstergo before Aveline's story was released as a videogame.
  • Despite the coins' Templar connotation, the reason behind their title is due to them being collected by Aveline while wearing her Assassin outfit.
  • Collecting all of the Assassins' coins granted Aveline the Bayou Hunter outfit for her Assassin persona. It could then be bought for free at any tailor shop.
