Spanish term

amonedados y en pasta

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general) Spanish judicial decision
This phrase is from a Spanish judicial decision, involving laws written in the 1930s and 1940s. This is the gist of the Spanish context:

"El artículo del ley con el concepto de anticipos, como por incautaciones, entregas y depósitos de oro y plata, AMONEDADOS Y EN PASTA."

I believe that AMONEDADOS would be 'coins' or 'cash', but 'en pasta'? I've seen that 'pasta' is a slang word for money, but the context seems to mean something like gold or silver certificates. As always, a thousand thanks!
