This is something I've been wondering about for a little while - why did "quoins" change to "coins"? I thought that "quoins" was charmingly different. Was it a copyright infringement of something else?
I wondered that too. As quoins are the blocks that strengthen the corners of buildings, I can't imagine that it could be a copyrighted/trademarked term.
I'm not bothered either way ..Although I did notice the change instantly and wondered why..So ..Yes please I would also like to know why Quions became Coins.. :)
