Minimum caster level is 13th.This item casts a very specific version of limited wish that takes 8 hours to cast, and can be usable once per day.  Furthermore, it has no XP cost.command-word activated, 1 use per day (4 +4 slots)spell slots 8-1 slot (item is bulky)-4 slots (low utility)+2 slots (no XP cost)-2 slots (increased casting time)+1 slots (item has basic intelligence)So, the chest is about 1 cubic feet in size.  The spell is limited in scope to just monetary conversions, but has the added benefit of no XP cost, has a vastly increased casting time, but also has basic intelligence.  Because it needs to know if you're wanting to convert gold into platinum or silver. It just can't assume one or the other.  Unless you say that it always converts to a higher form, unless you place the highest form in it, and then it converts it to silver.  So, it would be silver->gold->platinum->silver ad nauseum.  Doing it that way would be somewhat more annoying, and could have the +1 cost taken away.  But, for now, we'll leave it.That yields:10gp(caster level + spell level -1) * number of spell slots ^210gp(13 + 7 - 1) * (8-1-4+2-2+1)^2 =10gp(19) * 4^2 = 190*16 = 3,040gpThat's creation costMarket price is creation cost *2 which is 6,080gp.The item also requires the artificer to be able to cast 4 limited wish spells via his own personal power (i.e., no scrolls), but he can use 8th level slots, for example.You can reduce the cost by making it a little more stupid applying the silver->gold->platinum-> silver method to it.  The cost for that would be:190gp*9 = 1,710gp or a market price of 3,420gp.There's your price.And yes, that's a pretty nifty little item.</blockquote>
