Silver doubloon really?
Is it that time already?
Normally there’s a full month between these threads.
Craft them in the forge.

Craft them? Using random 5% in forge? It still ends up being 1g per silver doubloon.

most of the t1 and t1 gems are right at 1 silver. Many T3s are at 75 copper. Less if you use buy orders instead of needing to get right this instant.
3.5s x 20 = a LOT less than 1 gold.
A bit of clicking involved, but totally worth it to not hand that money off to people you feel are screwing you over.

It’s faster to farm gold than click yourself to death making silver doubloons. That is why their current price is a fair market price. The only ones screwing us over are Anet for being stupid enough to make a mid-tier unfarmable item (read virtually unobtainable at level 80) necessary in massive quantities for a high-tier end game item, likely for pure rp reasons (“It’s vial of quickSILVER get it?”). Even nuggets and marks are drying up at this point with so few low level players, making it more costly to mf dobuloons if you even wanted to torture yourself by trying.
Get stoned whenever you want:

Aion had a solution to this. Allow us to break an item and get 2 of the lower tier in return. Double clicking was all it took.
They should just have made it vial of quickplatinum.
The only reason that they’re so high is because you cannot get them by doing anything at level 80. Lodestones, Bloods, Bones, all of those can be obtained by just playing the game at level 80 so people who do need them add to the supply and keep the price down. However the only way to get silver doubloons is to actively pursue them meaning the only way they enter the game is on purpose (people dont just stumble upon them).
Because of that very few actually enter the market to be sold, but since everyone’s solution is to just keep farming gold to buy them the price keeps going up while the overall supply actually diminishes. At the time of me writing this there are 564 silver doubloons on the market from anywhere from 1 gold to 20 gold.
People can claim they’re supposed to be hard to get all they want, and its true. But at least make it possible to obtain at level 80, instead of forcing us to camp jumping puzzles on low level alts for a chance of obtaining them, or sending us to the mystic toilet for (once again) a chance of obtaining them. I’ve gotten more gold doubloons upgrading mats at the mystic toilet trying to get silvers than what I actually want. Its possible yes, but not viable.
All Anet would have to do to solve this problem and keep them rare is to add them to champion boxes. Problem solved.
Can’t do anything at 80 except make them yourself at the forge…

And what do you throw into the forge to get them? level 0-20 stuff. How do you get level 0-20 stuff? Put money into the TP or do level 0-20 content. You can’t do dungeons for them (lodestones) you can’t grind champions for them (lodestones and t6 crafting materials).

Open bags. They don’t care what level you are.
I find chopping down trees and mining works pretty much the same at all levels – 80s are certainly not penalized and are even slightly advantaged.
They have a huge edge when it comes to making gold to buy the mats to produce them yourself for a fraction of what people who already did that exact same work for you are charging on the TP.

Before or after TP taxes?
There is no viable way to get them, if there was people would be already all over it and supply wouldn’t be so low.

People are hoarding them. For the past week I’ve been listing them as I get them and sell it within moments every time. I finally came to my senses and have been holding on to them to sell all at once when the price is right. Since last night I’ve collected 16 silver doubloons.
