panthig
noun. coin
A word appearing as ᴱN. panthig “coin” in the Early Noldorin Grammar of the 1920s, a singularized form of ᴱN. pant “money” (PE13/124).
Neo-Sindarin: Since I retain ᴺS. pant “money”, I would retain this noun as well, but adapted as ᴺS. pennig to better fit later Sindarin phonology, as well as a deliberate allusion to English “penny”.
