this got me looking up the etymology of ace and turns it comes from "as" which was the monetary unit of rome. so it really would give you a dupondius (or more accurately, whatever word would have resulted from dupondius being taken into english)
that's just a regular occurrence in dungeons & degenerate gamblers
