I don't think so. The other variants of the Spanish-inspired cards are clearly staves. Besides, basto is very, very close to bastón, the word for a staff like a walking stick. Gherkins are called pepinillos

It was an attempt at a joke. The one version you linked to is green and kind of looks like a gherkin. That's all.
