    A bunch of the Old School Renaissance games made the silver piece the standard so that gold was an exponent of 10 rather than the other way around. Ultimately though it’s up to the GM to control prices for things in-game and decide if something is sellable at all.

      RuneQuest made the silver piece the standard of trade - and that was in 1978!

      Because that's what it was back in medieval times. No idea why medieval history freak Gygax dropped the ball on that one. Gold was only used by merchants to settle accounts amongst themselves, or by nobles to hoard wealth.
