Without bullion; lacking precious metal reserves or wealth in the form of gold and silver.
From 'bullion' + '-less' (without), following the standard English pattern for creating 'without' adjectives. A rare technical term used in economic and historical contexts.
The '-less' suffix is basically English's deletion button—it turns almost any noun into its opposite: hopeless, heartless, bullionless—it's a powerful tool for writers!
