Aurodium standard

The aurodium standard was a currency standard that existed in the galaxy. The standard shared its name with aurodium, a rare and valuable metal used in currency. By the time of the Clone Wars, the Galactic Republic had long abandoned the standard and was instead partnering with major banks, such as the InterGalactic Banking Clan and Bank of the Core, to hold a reserve of credits to ensure the Republic's currency remained stable.
