Look for it up at the top of the page in the dictionary. You will find both the noun and the verb as well as some snippets from previous forum threads.

"La moneda" also means "the mint" at least in Santiago, Chile where the building is no longer used for coining coins but for a multitude of other governmental functions. - geofc, Jun 4, 2010

There is a "Dictionary" link at the top of each page in Spanish Dict. All you have to do is type in the word that you would like translated and you will get the translation as well as other information about the word.

Here is a link to the word "coin" in the Spanish Dict dictionary . . .

You can even get the pronunciation of word in Spanish if you type in the Spanish word in the "Dictionary" link!

Sencillo, moneda, ficha. In mexico we say Quarter in slang sometimes as un quarter. 1.3 pesos is about 10 cents.

Hecho, correct me but I think of "sencillo" as a pocketful of "monedas", what I currently refer to as "shrapnel" (this seems to amuse the Texans). - geofc, Jun 4, 2010
