This article is about an older version of DF.

Billon is an alloy of equal parts Template:L and Template:L. Historically, this was used to mint coins. This can be done in-game as well, but unlike coins of copper, silver or gold, billon coins, without modding the game, have no place in the Template:L.

Two billon bars can be made at a Template:L from 1 chunk of silver Template:L and 1 of copper ore, or 1 silver Template:L and 1 copper bar. Two units of tetrahedrite count as 1 copper and 1 silver ore, and will yield two bars of billon. This last recipe will only be used when no other silver ores like silver or galena are available to the smelter, otherwise silver nuggets or galena ore will be preferred, the tetrahedrite then acting as copper.

Billon can be used to make furniture and 'other objects' at a Metalsmith's forge.
