In Ultima Online, Gold comes in several forms. The gold coin is the most prevalent and the primary medium of exchange. It is acquired through a whole host of means:
- found as loot on most creatures;
- from NPC buyers;
- as an NPC quest reward;
- from begging;
- in Treasure Chests;
- from other Player Characters;
- from your own vendor; and
- from items you sell at auction.
Since Publish 58, 150 gold is 1 stone in weighed, so a full stack of 60,000 coins are 400 stone in weighed. Gold coins initially weighed a fiftieth {1/50} of a stone (so fifty coins stacked together weighed a single stone). Gold has no weight when located in a bank box.
Gold Bricks
Gold also comes in brick form. In this instance, Gold Bricks are a decorative artifact that can be found from doing Treasure Maps, by fighting a Leviathan that is brought to the surface with a Fabled Fishing Net, or as part of the Paragon system in Ilshenar. While not common, Gold Bricks are not extremely valuable and are only good for deco.
Golden Ingots & Ore
The Blacksmithy resource that is sometimes referred to as "gold" is actually called Golden Ore and Golden Ingots.
Notes
- Acquiring gold from killing creatures in great quantities sometimes is called "gold farming."
History
- Amounts of up to one million gold coins could be stored in check form, which can save space. This was removed with the launch of Time of Legends Expansion.
