Conversion rates:

• 1 CR = $1 USD 2022
• 1 CR = 1 cp
• 100 CR = 1 sp
• 1,000 CR = 1 gp

Note:

• cp, sp, and gp are for system 8
• they convert 1:1 for mundane purchases (food, livestock, vehicles, etc)
• magic items generally convert 1000:1, so a 3.5 item costing 35,000 gp actually costs 35,000 cp or 3.5 gp
