The quantity of relative gold and silver extracted from mining in the middle wasn't enough to significantly alter the silver-to-gold ratio. It was 10-12 to 1 since the end of the Roman Empire to the end of the middle ages. There was some historical example of deviance from it, for example in Japan the ratio was different than in mainland Asia so there was a lucrative gold/silver trade for Korean traders, but it's extremely specific. At a local level, though, a huge influx could do some effect, but probably over a longer time most campaigns last.Of course, if you open a portal to the elemental plane of earth, you might find a beach where pebbles are made of gold ready for the harvest, then all bets are off.</blockquote>
