Something you are overlooking is the fact that what might be useful to someone else could be garbage to other people.
Diamonds have not replaced the currency, since the currency of coins is still used and (like diamonds) still expendible. They have been integrated into Kingdoms' economy by players and not by admins as an alternative higher form of currency.

All I am saying is 9 times out of 10 if you offered someone 500 diamonds they'd accept.
The 1 of 10 would maybe accept the current platinum equivalent.
Diamonds are more desired, of course I'll use it as currency. The point still stands though, that diamonds and platinum do not have the same desireability. So in essence they don't have the same value.
