No Egyptian coins of ancient provenance have survived- therefore, it is assumed they had what amounted to a moneyless economy! Gold bracelets may well have served as rank insignia- like modern Naval rank stripes or campaign ribbons, but not money as such. There are no descriptions of any Egyptian coins in The Bible, for example. Shekels were Israeli, Talents Greek, and so on.
