Noddish Coin
Nod mints its own currency, though no one has ever located a mint and even the Council doesn't seem to know the origins of them. New coins enter circulation bearing symbols that no living resident recognizes, appearing in caches or fed into the system by some means no one can seem to trace. Simultaneously, old coins occasionally vanish from purses and strongboxes without evidence of theft. The Merchants Guild has attempted to standardize the currency four times but each attempt produced a new denomination that the existing coins seemed to absorb into their own system within months. In the absence of a stock market, central bank, or any substantial economic superstructure the general consensus on coin value has held for centuries among the broader public. Groups like the Merchants Guild and Kuron Inc. have recently developed exchanges for Earth currencies, and even tried importing them as new standards, but no change has endured.
