Actually, the universal GURPS $
had been invented:
*"Prices are always listed in $, for convenience –
but $ can stand for dollar, credit, silver piece, or whatever is appropriate." Classic Basic Set 3e pg 71
*"All prices in GURPS (whatever the game world) are indicated by a dollar sign – $ – just to make it easy on the writers and typesetters.
GMs are welcome to translate this to credits, copper farthings, Martian foomphra or whatever they feel is appropriate to the
adventure" Classic Basic Set 3e pg 189

Actually inflation hasn't been done away as demonstrated how Paut's price increases with TL just like starting wealth does. Heck, Industrial Enchantment is linked to this TL starting wealth.
