the gold at Gringotts is wizard-made. I'd further speculate that
goblins accept wizard gold as payment for goblin-made items, because
goblins have uses for wizard gold. <snip>

Carol responds:

This much, at least, is covered in the books. Hermione describes her
fake galleons as having the date and time of the next DA meeting in
place of the serial number of the Goblin who made the galleon. I don't
know the exact page reference, but the conversation must have occurred
in OoP.

Carol, enjoying everyone's speculations but doubting very much that
Griphook showed any gratitude to the Wizard hosts who fed, sheltered,
and healed him
