| style="color:#ccaa44; font-weight:bold;" |Bottlecaps
|The universal wasteland currency. Accepted everywhere, trusted by everyone. The standard unit of exchange.

|1, 10, 50, 100, 500
|-
|'''NCR Dollars'''
|Paper money issued by the New California Republic. Backed by the Republic's gold reserves - or what remains of them. Worth less than caps due to inflation and limited acceptance outside NCR territory.

|10, 50, 100, 500
|-
| style="color:#ffcc44;" |'''Legion Aureus'''
|Gold coins minted by Caesar's Legion. Solid gold, universally recognized as valuable regardless of political opinion. One Aureus equals 10 Denarii.
|10× Denarius
|Individual coins
|-
|'''Legion Denarius'''
|Silver coins of the Legion. The base denomination of Legion currency. Widely accepted as a medium of exchange even by factions hostile to the Legion - silver is silver.
|Base unit
|Individual coins
|-
|'''Pre-War Money'''
|Old-world paper currency. Worthless as legal tender but collected as a curiosity, used as kindling, or traded to those who value pre-war artifacts.
|Cosmetic / 1 per unit
|10, 50, 100, 500

* Pre-War Money has '''no standardized trade value''' - its worth depends entirely on who wants it
