Those values are not quite the actual here either. Gold is inflated to a 50:1 basis over silver, not 40:1. All of that is no matter as it is a game tool to get highly portable wealth, as gold was and is, that has fixed $ value.Note the $ is just a symbol for one base unit of money, and one can call that base unit anything--bezant, crown, ducat, ecu, guilder, whatever.By using a standard as suggested, then all changes in values outside the state in which the campaign is set have a base line against which to measure.Cheerio,Gary</blockquote>
