This so-called currency was a contract between the owner of the property and the exchange market; it was essentially an agreement between all owners.

The Continental Hotel's gold coins naturally also had their own basic currency value.

Assassinations were just one of the services it provided.

Other professional services such as arms, equipment, intelligence, and various professional items could also be purchased with gold coins.
