A side note:

I can go out there on a Horse in an Armour amongst a crowd of people and throw out gold coins and they will all fallow me even place a gold crown on my head not asking where the gold coins came from. this is the basic way of pirates strategy and it cant really be fighted. the only way to do is to convince the ones who took the Coins and placed the Crown that it was wrong this way and that there are other ways to get the coin.
