Ironman verdict
Other sources include Ogre Coffin. One recipe uses Black nails: Black brutal. Black nails is members-only. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 7 coins.
