Diamonds are good, but it is not easily divisible.

Well more correctly, diamonds are actually pretty easily divisible - but the value surely isn’t.

Cigarettes and chocolate are, but they get consumed. Those Yap island stone “coins” look pretty unwieldy.

Long ago in China, a “penny” was a one pound copper disk!
