I think 100% money is the original economic term for this concept, used by Irving Fisher (see http://realmoneyecon.org/lev2/images/pdfs/100percent_money.pdf http://realmoneyecon.org/lev2/images/pdfs/100percent_money.p...). Also, I think Vollgeld comes from an abbreviation of vollwertiges Geld (full-fledged money), and seems like an appropriate translation of 100% money and sounds good, as well.
