Money that goes around before it goes away.
A town’s own money, backed one for one by dollars. Every SR remembers how many hands it has passed through, and leaving town costs something only for money that never went round: five percent for money that came straight in, nothing after five hands. What leaving costs is the town’s to spend, with a memo anyone can read.
