How many doubloons would make you rich in 1500s?
Adjusting for inflation (VERY difficult going back that far...needs more research fellow editors/contributors) .... 1,000 doubloons (minted in Spain, translation = double) would make you "rich." To truly answer the question we needs to define "rich" (In the United States, income over $250,000 is taxed at a very high rate, or "the top tax bracket") 1 doubloon contains about 1/5 troy ounces of gold and was worth $4.00 US when Spain stopped minting them in the 19th century, so in my best estimation, 1,000 of those spanish gold coins would make you quite rich in the 16th century.
