Ah. Well, good luck with that! I know for a while that gold and platinum were richly harvested because of the gil limit on transferring off of legacy worlds, so people would convert their money to alagan stones and then vendor on arrival in the new world. Given how "landlocked" Balmung is in general, I'm inclined to think people don't hoard the expensive ones.
Hell, isn't platinum like, rare-venture only?
