Merchant's Blade

The Merchant's Blade is a craftable Hardmode sword that inflicts the Golden Touch debuff, causing enemies to drop 20% to 70% more coins. It also fires a projectile (similar to that of the Chlorophyte Claymore) in the shape of a golden coin that is affected by gravity and disappears on impact with a block. The projectile does not inflict the debuff, but has a 5% chance to drop a copper, silver or gold coin (with the same chances within this 5% as the lucky coin).

Its best modifier is Legendary.
