re: #36 FFL (GOP Delenda Est)

And why would it be money? Since it’s pre-capitalist is there any reason the dwarves were using the gold for coins as compared to decorative objects and jewelry?

Odds are the loot was baubles and small objects instead of coins.

I tend to think they would have an enormous amount of the gold in coin form, not so much even for day to day spending, but just because it would, to a dwarven mind, make a compact, readily identifiable, readily valued bit of currency. No need to have some guy with the green-shade visor and the magnifying glass come to make an appraisal. Just hand someone something and say, “It’s an unclipped King Theon, one imperial ounce of gold.”
