All Capellan coins have a hole bored through their center to allow them to be carried on money strings. Circa [[3067]] coins display the flag of the Confederation on one side, with the lower denominations displaying the flag of a commonality capital world on the other (reclaimed Tikonov being the only exception) on the other, with ''yuan'' featuring notable [[Chancellor]]s.<ref name=HHL-130/>

Notes are uniformly designed and of one size. They are custom milled paper, colored a shade of green to purple based on denomination; the 10 ''yuan'' note is green with a purple tint, while the 1,000 ''yuan'' note is purple with a green tint. The backside of all bills shows the flag of Capella, the Capella Commonality Bank building, and the flag of the Confederation. The fronts are three-paneled, with the left panel a ''darndao'', the middle a portrait of a notable Chancellor and the right side a rampant Chinese dragon. As of 3067 the newest minting of the 1,000-''yuan'' note honors the ''Xin Sheng'' revival and replaces the dragon with a stylized rising phoenix.<ref name=HHL-130/>
