[quote=@Prince of Seraphs] And thus the problem with a barter economy as while that might have some value to certain people it would mean pretty much nothing more than what she could sell it for as my character is a wanderer and generally hated by everyone. The value of an item is subjective, the value of cash is not. [/quote] Free accommodation at inns across the kingdom? Actually, how the hell do you pay for accommodation? Like, ignoring the fact that a barter economy managed to establish a kingdom-type political entity in the first place, do you have to give innkeepers a chicken every time you want to stay a night? Like, because one chicken = dinner and board? Such is the inefficiency of a barter economy on grand scale.
