History
The currency has only existed in its current form since 1893. The Orinese started using money in the 2nd century BCE. Medanese perfumes have been discovered as far away as Aroma, suggesting that the famous Pearl Road was already emerging. A currency was still a novel idea at the time. Previously it was shaped like dolphins, unique in shape, which seems inconvenient. It is interesting that the early Orinese adopted an ingot casting method in the dolphin shape, rather than the traditional round or square coinage of their contemporaries. This shape may also have carried religious significance.
