Post-War currency

The currency in the Fallout world has varied from game to game.

In Fallout 1 bottlecaps were used as currency.

In Fallout 2 it was dollars backed by gold in value and by the 3 big powers of New California Republic, Vault City, and New Reno, with bottlecaps becoming little more than nostalgia as at least ONE of the 3 described powers had influence in just about any civilized spot in the Wasteland.

In Tactics, you used a mixture of Brotherhood scripts and Ring pulls, essentially the same as bottle caps only also including pull-tabs from soda cans.

For Brotherhood of Steel, well, no one really cares, do they? (its Caps, though due to blatant product placement replacing beloved in-universe brand Nuka-Cola, BAWLS bottle caps are worth extra)

For Fallout 3, Bottle caps return as the main form of currency though interestingly enough, one can also find pre-war money though it is simply nothing more than loot that fetches a nice price. Also of note is that unlike previous Fallout games, when one drinks a Nuka-Cola, it's bottlecap actually adds to your stock.
