Yeah, the adventurers really skew the economy. They just casually stroll up and loot hundreds of GP from an ancient crypt, awaken a long-forgotten lich, and then fuck off. It’s always up to the city guard to put down the inevitable undead army that the lich has raised. It truly is the definition of “capitalism for thee, socialism for me.”
I wonder whether an over-abundance of gold or other coins could lead to people using the gold for other purposes (such as magical reagents). I don’t know enough about how real world inflation works to speculate about how the fantasy version would work.

That can be an interesting story. Adventurer with their gold coins wreck a village economy until the taxperson comes
