In Stardew Valley, there are a number of ways to earn gold. First, the player may acquire items to sell, through farming, fishing, combat, etc. After this, the player can either sell their items at a shop that corresponds with the item that he/she is selling (for example, edibles can be sold at [[Pierre's General Store]]), which allows for the funds to be immediately added to the player's balance. If the player does not wish to travel to a store to sell their items, due to time constraints or other reasons, they can instead deposit the item in the [[Shipping|shipping box]] outside of their house. This will deliver the funds to them overnight, and display a screen that lists the value of all items the player deposited.

The primary method of earning gold is to collect items by [[farming]], [[fishing]], [[foraging]], [[mining]], or engaging in [[combat]], then selling the items by placing them in the [[Shipping|shipping box]] on the farm.   Gold is earned after the player goes to sleep for the night, and the amounts for each item are displayed on a summary screen.

Alternatively to selling items, the player may complete [[quests]]. These "quests" either are issued by the message board outside of Pierre's, or delivered directly to the player's mailbox. Quests include acquiring items, giving items to [[Villagers|NPC Villagers]] as gifts, slaying monsters, talking to villagers, or a combination the above. Upon completion of the quest, the player immediately gains the reward of gold added to their balance.

Alternatively, items can be sold to various merchants throughout Stardew Valley, and gold can be collected immediately.  Each merchant will purchase only specific items that correspond to the type of items they sell:  [[Pierre's General Store]] buys edibles, the [[Fish Shop]] buys [[Fish]], the [[Blacksmith]] buys metal ores and gems, etc.

Not to be confused with Gold Ore or Gold Bars.

Gold Gold.png is the primary currency of Stardew Valley. The amount of gold a player has is displayed at the top right of the screen, directly below the time. All players start with data-sort-value="500">Gold.png500g. "Total Earnings" and "Current Funds" can be viewed at any time on the Inventory screen of the pause menu.

Most shops accept Gold as payment for their goods and services. Exceptions include the Desert Trader, the Island Trader, the booths at the Stardew Valley Fair, the Casino, and Qi's Walnut Room.

Earning Gold

The primary method of earning gold is to collect items by farming, fishing, foraging, mining, or engaging in combat, then selling the items by placing them in the shipping box on the farm. Gold is earned after the player goes to sleep for the night, and the amounts for each item are displayed on a summary screen.

Alternatively, items can be sold to various merchants throughout Stardew Valley, and gold can be collected immediately. Each merchant will purchase only specific items that correspond to the type of items they sell: Pierre's General Store buys edibles, the Fish Shop buys Fish, the Blacksmith buys metal ores and gems, etc.

The player may also complete quests to earn gold. Quests are either posted on the "Help Wanted" board outside of Pierre's General Store, or delivered directly to the player's mailbox on the farm. Quests involve acquiring/delivering items, slaying monsters, or catching fish. Upon completion of a quest, the player may earn gold by opening the Journal, selecting the completed quest, and clicking on the reward icon.

The player will also receive gold in the mail. The player's mother or father will send money after the player earns specific amounts of gold, Pierre will randomly send 'Cash-back Rewards Program' rebates, and Lewis will randomly send gold from the 'Stardew Valley Agricultural Fund' for being a member of the community.
