- (38:14) "2 cuts hash and 50 rizlas each"
The other common currency besides iron: cannabis and cigarette papers (Rizla is the most popular British brand of rolling papers). It's not clear how the latter are manufactured in a pre-industrial setting.
(Ironically, Rizla is a word from Outland: Lacroix Fils was the original manufacturer, and riz = rice[paper], thus Riz La. Thanks to SF.)
