About:

Although I love the fact that SE already has several mods to address the fact that gold weighs nothing and is mislabeled, despite the fact that Septim's face is still on it, I wanted more out of my immersive experience. After a few hours of searching for tidbits here and there, I stumbled upon a quick fix. Someone on reddit suggested the following for Oldrim:

In the vanilla game folder:
\Data\Interface\Translate_ENGLISH.txt
Modify all instances of the term "Gold" with "Septim" on the right hand side of the TAB spaces.

With that in mind, I modified the Translate_ENGLISH.txt file from English Strings for Skyrim, reverted all the grammar back to American English and replaced every instance of gold to septim. Now the UI will say septim, including your stats, such as how much gold you've collected. I found this totally by accident, and mind you, I'm still new to Skyrim SE, but I figured I wasn't the only one annoyed by that glaring inconsistency in the bottom right corner of your eye, and I figured I'd share the discovery. If I missed anything, please let me know.



Install:
Manual drop the file into your interface file. The file path should look like this: Skyrim Special Edition > Data > Interface

Uninstall:
Delete txt. file
