Bavan Coins
As the city of trade, suprising enough the city as strong controls on money within its walls, only pure metals, gems and Bavan Coinage can be used for offical trade, Coins that have come from offworld, need to be exchanged with the The Fulcrum to local versions of the same value for a small fee (or if you a regular to Bavo'sand its worth considering setting up an account at one of the city banks, that work with the Fulcrum to convert, monitor and maintain the pure coinage and values within the city.
When testing offworld coinage its check for purity and true value rather than what is stamped with. So a Gold Coin from Volakan isn't worth the same as one from Charn, due to purity of the gold, no gold coin is actually 100% gold, either that of Bavan while one of the purest is around 8 grams of 22 Carat Gold. While the least pure that of Aeladin Gold Coins which are only 6 grams of 16 Carat Gold. A fair exchange rate is set for all known worlds based on Purity, Weight and true value of coins. These are exchanged before you either allow to leave the Great Wayfaire Hub, and while there are multiple officals from different banks, there never a difference in the exchange value, just on options to how to pay to do it.
