Electrum aside (who uses Electrum anyway?), converting between copper, silver, gold and platinum is a matter of adding or removing a zero at the end (per step).
I don't see any problems with an automated converter, but I can't really see it fit development priorities in either character or campaign management.
Electrum is maybe innecesary! I take it out too! Some players always try to take adventage of coin exchage, that's why I wan't something like this in just one site, not to take one thing for one side and other in other place! (By the way Sedge, your: Currency Calculator [Reddit], is good)
Electrum has been in the game since the beginning. It is in the PHB. It is not at all setting specific. Unless you count settings which have a different coinage systems, or people who drop it. But those are basically house rules overwriting the existence of it.
Side note, this thread you’re replying to is 9 years old. The folks in it have likely sorted things out by this point.

Could someone make one coin converter?
The table is Good, and easy to understand, but got something automatic maybe could be great!

Perhaps I'm proven wrong, who knows? In either case, you may want to point it out in the Character Sheet Wish List Megathread.
Yeah, electrum is terrible, and I remove it from every campaign I DM, and every DM I've ever had has done the same.
You could always give this a try, if you believe it helps:

Electrum is mostly setting-specific. Like in CoS.
