    That's exactly the point. How can You buy gold if no one will produce it? After some time people will spent all the amount of gold they got for free at the beginning of the game and the prices will increase. Nevertheless I wouldn't be sad if there was 400 or little more gold ore in a mine.

    It just produces it in half time, which means your maths before are all .... mmm... useless

    A buffed mine empties twice as fast as an unbuffed one.
    This is incorrect. A buffed mine is emptied in the same time as a non buffed mine. But every cycle it produces dubble the amount of resources. So a buffed mine DOES have double the amount of ore.

    I don't build Gold mines, I build Brewery, and convert it for coins (if no one ever buy my beer)

    how much Gold exactly you get for each mine/day?
    because I can convert up to 90 coins/day (9k beer)
    if I had better luck, I can sold a stack of beer for 25 coins

    Keeping the whole gold production system buffed at all times can result in a 300 ore mine ending up as 300 coins.
    Yes, gold mines are worth building because, at the end of the day, it will be the best source of gold coins.

    Y till now i got the point of it, so I can say you all guys are right and wrong in same time. Prices does go down every day, 'cause 2 muc people on the market, everyone wont to sell, so everyone make price (gold) lover and lover. But so far it's not time to build gold mine, not yet, prices are still good, so not worth to build it, lets say soon will be but not yet. Now I have cca 500 gold daily income from tradeing, still didn't build gold mine, but lets say in 3-4 weak prices will be so low that gold mine will get sance to build. Allso one thing could give more sance to this, not everyone can be online all the time, or every few hours, most of the people can log in morning and late afthernoon, poeople work, school, whatever, so 6h buff give cind anfair game play 2 them infront of guys that have avaible comp all the day, and it's like 50-50% people. So 12h buff would be inaf 2 make all this corect and valiable for all players, as fair game to all and gold mine worth to build.

    Fapion, ask a friend to buff with Irma's basket and get 9 hours.
    12 hour buffs are available already but you need to use gems.
    Some items need to be left as premium item, so don't ask for 12 hour Provision house buffs.

    Like any other special resource you need LOTS of them, but the nice part of coins is the fact that the number of needed coins is rather limited. You use it for upgrading buildings, buying more generals/explorers and sending the explorers out. Except for the sending of the explorers, all has to be done only once. When your building is level 5 its ready. You don't need to spend ANYTHING ever again on that building. Its only the reason why the production of coins is soo expensive and hard, if they made it too easy everyone would be having L5 building.

    Unlike copper/iron, you don't need an endless suplly of it. I am using my coinage to fund the explorer, which can be easily done with an L2 coinage, even while you run it only buffed and then only 12 hours per day
