In my campaign (once it got back to the CONUS) the players were issued MilGov paper scrip as currency, concurrent with gold and silver having a relatively set value and being allowed by MilGov to be used as semi-official currency, so long as it was in ingot form and stamped with its purity and weight (the ingots could be any size and shape and could be smelted by anyone but of course stamped purity and actual purity often varied). I never really came to grips with all the difficulties of that system but hey, when you're running a game like T2K you've already got a million things to worry about as GM to keep things fairly realistic.
