An Earth-girl brought to Gor, on the other hand, might be in her collar a year or more and have had perhaps two or three masters before she comes to understand the potent symbolism of this, that such a humble coin is used. - (Renegades of Gor, Chapter 24, Sentence #695)

Goreans tend to be very sensitive to matters of ritual, tradition, custom, symbolism, and such. Accordingly, in allotting decisions amongst slaves to chance a low-denomination coin is preferred, this symbolic of the slave's worthlessness, even if she is a high slave who might actually sell for golden tarn disks. This symbolism, that of the low-denomination coin, would not be lost on the two girls, as both were Gorean. An Earth-girl brought to Gor, on the other hand, might be in her collar a year or more and have had perhaps two or three masters before she comes to understand the potent symbolism of this, that such a humble coin is used. But then, later, as her Gorean sisters have already, from their culture, she will come to understand the significances of such things. But by then she is already a slave, and has come to expect such things, given her status. Too, she will not only understand such things, and expect them, but, as her Gorean sister now, will welcome them, recognizing their appropriateness. - (Renegades of Gor)
