The story

A customs gold unit was created; contemporary report explicitly describes it as a bookkeeping unit rather than general currency. [1]

Fiscal bookkeeping denomination is sufficient under account-unit ontology even where contemporary author contrasts it with circulating currency. Notes are incidental; do not describe gold content or note issue as identity basis. [2]
