These lines refer to Miss Mebbin.
She always adopted an elder sister attitude towards money, i.e, she was very protective of money and tried to save every penny.
By using these lines, the narrator wants to point out the fact that she didn't care if she saving dollars or roubles or ruppees; every denomination (type) of money was precious to her.
A casual example:
Money is money, after all. It does not matter if they are euros or pounds; you'll try your best to save them, "irrespective of nationality or denomination".
