I believe the plural of "True" should still be "True," as it's short for "True One-Ounce Pieces of Gold", rather than "Trues" or, worse yet, "Truths."

From the write-up:
These other coins were and are accepted through out the land but the "True" remains the standard to this day. Throughout the land to this day merchants and buyers alike can be heard asking how many “Trues” or “Truthes” an item, ale, or trinket costs.
Examples:
“A chicken for a Truth”, calls the woman selling hens.
“The blade be two thousand True”, says the dwarves weapon merchant.
The barkeep looks at the downtrodden man and says , “An Axehead Ale be 30 pieces of Truth ser”.
Therefore, True, Trues and Truthes are all correct.
And the prime reason for the True being called what it is is because of Raklin's nickname (yes they're also an ounce, but if there hadn't been Raklin's nickname, they wouldn't have been called that).
