价钱 (jià qián) 'price' joins 价 and 钱. 价 (jià) means value or price and carries the person radical 亻 in its simplified form, reduced from the traditional 價. 钱 (qián) means money and carries the metal radical 钅, since coins were cast in metal. Together the compound names the amount of money something costs. The traditional form is 價錢.
