    that’s true,

    wonder if that tavernkeeper can go to the nearest Lord and ask to change the gold coins for equal value silver/copper coins.

    Also. no banks, so travelling with 9000$ in cash would be extremely dangerous…

    would 9000$ in silver coins something that’s easy to hide?

      Very roughly 1 gold is 10 silver in history. So that would just be a small bag of 30 something coins. It’s not that big in size, but it’s still about a kilogram (2 pound) so a bit heavy to keep in your pocket.
