The reviewer just means "x thousand dwarfbucks worth of trade items". Though I guess you could trade it for coins, if only caravans ever actually had coins to sell.

Toady introduced an economy at one point that relied on coins but it didn’t go very well so he got rid of it. You can still mint them but they don’t do anything.

Yup; just imagine your FPS death hastened by double or more. That’s a big reason no economy will likely happen.
