Canadian math.

I was looking at some Canadian gold coins and have noticed something peculiar:
1/4oz gold coin has the denomination of $10.00
1/2oz gold coin has the denomination of $20.00
but the 1oz gold coin is $50.00 :huh::huh::huh:


So, using Canadian math:
2x10=20
4x10=50
2x20=50

The coin system was purposefully designed to be confusing, actually I think we in the U.S. have similarly odd pricing.
Not that anyone with half a brain would use these gold coins for their legal tender value.

1/4 oz of gold is worth around $500 right now, who would use that to pay a $10 debt?
