I'm sorta curious because I read that 1 gold piece was quite small. That and about carrying capacity. So how much gold could you fit in 1 pound?

Currently 50/pound. In my blog, I calculated how many would fit in a typical box or pile ([URL="http://www.genrepub.com/6/post/2014/02/weights-and-measures-part-one-coins-swords-and-armor-by-greg-szulgit.html"]).
