telpilin
noun. silver piece
A noun appearing as ᴱQ. telpilin “silver piece” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s based on ᴱQ. telpe “silver” (QL/91).
Neo-Sindarin: Since telpë “silver” survives in Tolkien’s later writings, I would retain ᴺQ. telpilin “silver piece, ✱silver coin” for purposes of Neo Quenya.
