Russia had something similar at one point. https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Условная_единица https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Условная_единица No pages in other languages, basically prices were in USD due to inflation, but at some point it was forbidden to say that and to actually use dollars to trade, so people wrote у.е. instead. It even made it into some laws. Google translates it as Conventional Unit, but it doesn't really capture euphemistic nature of it though. There also was redenomination which chopped three zeroes off, I guess you can call it a new currency. > In September 1993, the Soviet ruble (code: SUR) was replaced with the Russian ruble (code: RUR) at the rate 1 SUR = 1 RUR. In 1998, preceding the financial crisis, the Russian ruble was redenominated with the new code "RUB" and was exchanged at the rate of 1,000 RUR = 1 RUB.
