About
Silver pieces are the currency in Salem. NPC vendors in Boston sell goods and services in silver pieces, and will also pay you in silver for certain items they are willing to buy. Silver is also widely exchanged between players through offers of buying and selling which you will often find when loitering in Boston's main square.
Silver pieces are stack-able in your inventory reaching a maximum size of 100 per inventory slot. This can quickly become a burden trying to store larger amounts of silver so players may purchase a Coin Purse from NPC vendors in Boston for a small price of 5 silver pieces. A coin purse takes a single inventory slot and can store up to 500 silver pieces inside. You may even equip the pouch to your person which not only frees up all your inventory but also allows you to fast travel while carrying silver in your pouch when it is equipped.
Earning Silver in Salem
A new pilgrim to Salem may find it difficult to earn any silver to pay for the guide service which gives them a homestead on a random location or to purchase the nails to build the homestead themselves.
One good way to earn your first silver is to learn Indian Tracking and forage the area around Boston for Indian Arrowhead and Indian Feathers. Then you can craft the Savage Charm which the NPC buys for 35 silver pieces. Keep in mind the arrowheads spawn more frequently and are not useful by themselves.
Another good way to earn some coin in the beginning is to forage around Boston for some rare items other players usually are willing to buy. Inspirational items such as Tumbleweed, Beautiful Seashell, Aged Driftwood, New World Gourd can be found on the ground and are usually desirable.
Also there are some items which are easy to craft such as Hay which is a staple product for farming. Players farming fields always could use more of it and would rather pay someone else to collect all the grass then to do it themselves.
Selling Items To NPCs
You may also sell certain items to NPCs in Boston. Simply right-click on the stall and choose the 'Sell' option. Your cursor turns into a crucifix and you can start clicking items from your inventory to sell. The NPCs will only purchase items on the list.
The following table lists the items the NPCs are willing to buy, and their price:
Item | Price | Notes |
---|---|---|
Leather | 8 | Produced via the Tanning process. Other players will usually pay you more for leather though. |
Dried Beaver Pelt | 12 | Relatively easy to produce as long as you have a source of Beavers to hunt. |
Bear Skin | 60 | Very lucrative item and easy to produce as long as you can kill a Bear, which tend to be rather rare creatures to find in the wild. |
Dried Deer Hide | 4 | If you have the skills and the Tanning Tub it makes no sense to sell these hides without turning them into Leather |
Bar of Bubbly Soap | 50 | Not easy to produce as it requires 2 Gelatinous Lards which is rare to obtain. |
Cotton Cloth | 15 | Needs quite a bit of infrastructure to start producing this. Might get a little more selling to other players. |
Savage Charm | 35 | Crafted by using items foraged from the ground once you get Indian Tracking skill. Makes a great beginner's way to earn silver. |
Cricket Team | 40 | Need 11 dead Crickets to produce, but they are quite common so it's not very difficult to get this as long as you have Stomp combat ability. |
