Hmm, in 2? I'm not sure actually, over a thousand dinars.

The most I've had in any series was in 5, I had well over 100k drachmas, in fact robbing the bank the second time was a big hit to my wealth, because you can only carry 65,535 drachmas in your inventory so I lost all the rest.

You can easily get more, you have to bank it though. At 65,535 in your inventory, it stops increasing when you get cash. I don't know what the limit in the bank is but I assume it's a 32 bit integer, so 4 billion or so.

Beyond 100k or so, though, is slow going. You can use the dagger trick, but you need to cash out 64k drachmas at a time and bank the coin, so it would take a LOT of trips to/from the bank. In fact you'd need to make 65,535 trips to the bank.

Never checked. Since drachmas only stack to 250 per stack inside chests, that's a LOT of stacks. Makes the chest pretty useless for everything else, as you'd need to hunt it down in a sea of drachmas.
