(er) 8: Gold Coins -> Gold Crowns

(ft) 8: [Sean Donald: I do not know what Ren look like. If Ren are
indeed are gold coins (i.e. anatomically similar to Gold Crowns), you
therefore stand to lose Ren as well as Gold Crowns as a result of the
worm's attack. If Ren are not made of gold, then according to a strict
interpretation of the text, you stand to only lose your Gold Crowns.]

I couldn't find what Ren are made of, but there's also the question of
Lune which are not gold (I assume it is possible to still have some
Lune).

Here's the original:

~~~~~
As you are cleaning you clothes, you notice to your dismay that the
caustic fluid has eaten a hole in your Belt Pouch and you have lost
half of your gold coins.

You must reduce your current total of Gold Coins by half. Remember to
make the necessary adjustment in the Belt Pouch section of your Action
Chart before continuing.

Here's my suggestion:

~~~~~
As you are cleaning your clothes, you notice to your dismay that the
caustic fluid has eaten a hole in your Belt Pouch and you have lost
half of your coins.

You must reduce your current total of coins by half. Remember to make
the necessary adjustment in the Belt Pouch section of your Action
Chart before continuing.
~~~~~

Would it help to "reduce your current totals of Gold Crows, Lune, and
Ren by half"?

Also notice "you clothes" -> "your clothes". I don't have the book
handy to check if this is an erratum.
