Mahitha asked Jennifer A. Nielsen:

Hi, Mrs. Nielsen! I really like your writing, it's one of the reasons why I have wanted to become an author! I have a question—since one Garlin (in The Ascendance Series) is the national currency in Carthya, what would it be if it were converted to a US dollar? Thank you! :)

Jennifer A. Nielsen I absolutely love that you are wanting to become an author - that's fantastic!

It would be okay to convert the garlin to a dollar in that it's a basic unit of currency, but the value of a single garlin in Carthya is much higher than a single dollar in our time.
