"It" was in reference to "the type of currency". Referring to currency units instead of the currency itself just did not sound correct to me. --Zephyr Foxworth (talk) 16:06, 1 July 2014 (BST)

Using "Zophan Chanisters are a premium currency" and then following with "It is a premium currency" doesn't sound right to me. Of course this issue seems to be one of personal preference. -Lugia101101 (talk)

In the removal of "type of" I believe you are referring to "Zophan Canisters (abbreviations: ZC, Zophan) are a rare and premium type of currency.". If that is the case, consider the following:
Reading "Zopahn Canisters are a rare and premium currency," to me, sounds like "rare" is separate to "premium currency" and so it would register as "Zophan Canisters are a rare, and also a premium currency". Maybe "Zophan Canisters are rare and a premium currency" would be best. (Sorry for the rambling, it's 2:30AM and I don't tend to write particularly well at this time) -Lugia101101 (talk)
