Guild Wars 2

As per the topic^^

If one was programming this game, they might choose to use just one field for the money, then perform simple calculations to break it into silver and copper.

If they used an unsigned 32 bit integer, which has a max value of 4,294,967,295, then you’d simply divide by 10,000 (100 × 100) to find out how much gold you’d be able to hold. Course, this assumes a lot. You’d be able to carry 429,496 gold and 67 silver and 95 copper at the most if this was true.

But what if they used a 64 bit unsigned integer? Well the max value for that is 18,446,744,073,709,551,615… (That’s 18 quintillion plus change). Again, if we used the last 10,000 to keep track of silver and copper, we’d be left with a modest 1,844,674,407,370,955… 1.8 quadrillion.

My guess would be ((2^15)+1) gold. That is the loop-around value for C plus plus (spelled out to prevent underline). Or, it used to be, at any rate. not sure about now.

In any case, way higher than anybody is ever going to reach.

EDIT: Never mind, I’m positive it’s not that low.

It’s undoubtably high. No one yet has come to the forum and complained about hitting the limit afaik, and I gather some TP flipper are pretty rich.
