Money, NCR dollars,[Non-game 1] or $1 NCR, is a miscellaneous item in Fallout 2.
Background[]
Main article: NCR dollar
The standard denomination of the NCR dollar, minted in the mid-23rd century as gold coins. Frequently referred to as just coins,[1][2] bucks,[3] or, in New Reno, chips.[4] They were the standard unit of currency in New California, from the heartland of the NCR to the fringes as far as Klamath, Modoc, and Vault City, accepted by virtually all merchants. They were kept in bags not unlike bottle caps.[5]
Characteristics[]
Used by the New California Republic, Vault City and New Reno. Bottle caps have been replaced by these coins.
