First, I'm not sure why it is that you can make that first formula work, but not the second, since it's just a difference of a factor of 10.

 

That said, your first formula doesn't appear to be any recognizable (at least not recognizable by me) Excel formula. If you actually have a spreadsheet where that's working, please share it. That way we can help you without having to read your mind.

 

Second, are there units of currency that reflect fractions of these different metals, much as our quarters or dimes or nickels represent 1/4, 1/10th and 1/20th of a dollar (which at one time reflected a certain number of ounces of silver)?

 

Said another way, how do you receive or spend this currency? What, other than figuring out the relationship between x amount of copper and the relevant amounts of silver or gold, are you tracking or using?

 

Said another way, give a bigger picture here of how this is fitting in to some larger context.
