Admin only. Returns the base currency, the staleness window in days, and the registry. The console reads it before a currency change, so both are set against the real values.

`GET /api/v1/currency/overview`

**Responses**

- `200` — Base currency, staleness window, and the active registry
- `401` — Not authenticated
- `403` — Caller is not an admin
