Bladecoin Swarm

What appeared at first to be a pile of copper, gold, and platinum coins suddenly takes life and whirls into an amorphous cyclone of coins that jingle, hum, and clank together as the creature moves forward.

Bladecoins are tiny constructs fashioned by tricky spellcasters hoping to fool and detour would-be thieves. They are often constructed by spellcasters for others, such as merchants, local rulers, and sold to the client at a somewhat reasonable price. At rest, a bladecoin swarm appears to be nothing more than a pile of brass or copper coins. When it senses intruders entering the area it is tasked with guarding, it swirls into a cyclone form and moves to the attack, slashing its opponents with its razor-sharp edges.

Construction

A bladecoin's body is constructed from melted brass and copper coins with a total value of at least 1,000 gp.
