...gold is worth so much more, getting in game gold would be stupid really because think of the future not the present. as we go farther gold will become rarer and rarer raising in value causing the value of those coins to go up. later on you can sell them for a nice ammount of money not just because they are solid gold but because they are collector solid gold coins so allready they have a nice ammount of value in them.
