Six Shiny Silver Coins and the Ridiculous Ruckus They Caused

"The Fates see all and hear all. The king will perform a great act of generosity before the sun sets this day."
  
The king is horrified to hear this, and immediately throws six silver coins out into the crowd to get the prophecy over with before something worse happens.
  
Naturally, Henina catches one.
  
And, naturally, pandemonium ensues.
