Gold

{{tocright}}
In [[Ultima Online]], '''Gold''' comes in several forms. The gold coin is the most prevalent and the primary [[Money|medium of exchange]]. Amounts of up to one million gold coins can be stored in [[Bank Check|check]] form, which can save space. It is acquired through a whole host of means:
* found as loot on most [[creature]]s;
* from [[NPC]] buyers;
* as an NPC [[Quests|quest]] reward;
* from [[begging]];
* in [[Treasure Chest]]s;
* from other [[Player Character]]s;
* from your own [[Advertising a Vendor|vendor]]; and
* from items you sell at [[auction]].

Since [[Publish 58]], 150 gold is 1 stone in [[Weight|weighed]], so a full stack of 60,000 coins are 400 stone in [[Weight|weighed]]. Gold coins initially [[Weight|weighed]] a fiftieth {1/50} of a stone (so fifty coins stacked together weighed a single stone). 

==Gold Bricks==
Gold also comes in brick form. In this instance, [[Gold Bricks]] are a decorative [[artifact]] that can be found from doing [[Treasure Map]]s, 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]] [[resources|resource]] that is sometimes referred to as "gold" is actually called [[Golden]] [[Ore]] and [[Golden Ingot|Golden Ingots]].

==Notes==
* Acquiring gold from killing creatures in great quantities sometimes is called "gold farming."
