Does anyone else remember this? Maybe I'm just going crazy again.
I can’t see that in the script anywhere (although the Vulcan Starfleet officer does engage in the betting).
Maybe I am going crazy then .... :D

What was the name of the episode?

The only other currency we ever hear mentioned besides the Federation Credit in TOS' time is the Triskellion Quatloo.

No idea what the exchange rate on those is. 8)
