First thing would be to pad the number (add zeroes) which you can do by doing something like:

local function padNumber(padAmount, number) -- in our case padAmount would be 9
    return string.format(`%.{padAmount}d`, number) -- result of the format string would be '%.9d'
end

local paddedNumber = padNumber(9, 1000) --> 000001000

Next would be to format the number, adding the commas (obtained from here),

local function numWithCommas(n)
  return n:reverse():gsub("(%d%d%d)","%1,"):gsub(",(%-?)$","%1"):reverse()
end

paddedNumber = numWithCommas(paddedNumber) --> should now be 000,001,000

So the final script would be something like:

local function formatPaddedNumber(padAmount, number)
	return string.format(`%.{padAmount}d`, number):reverse():gsub("(%d%d%d)","%1,"):gsub(",(%-?)$","%1"):reverse()
end

print(formatPaddedNumber(9, 1000)) --> 000,001,000

I agree with you, it also implies that you have a coin limit of 999,999,999 (or at least by the looks of the gui) But everyone has their own opinions.
