Hi, after playing many times I realized that I dont get the idea of the exact amount of extra dimensional space that the bag of holding gives you to drop stuff into. Can anyone please tell me at least in meters how much space do I have for items in any of the bags of holding? And if possible, I need to also get an idea of how much gold piecese I could get alone in the bag, using all its space.
Thank you,
Xavori.

I hope this is what you're looking for.

Bag Bag Weight Contents Weight Limit Contents Volume Limit Market Price
Type I 15 lb. 250 lb. 30 cu. ft. 2,500 gp
Type II 25 lb. 500 lb. 70 cu. ft. 5,000 gp
Type III 35 lb. 1,000 lb. 150 cu. ft. 7,400 gp
Type IV 60 lb. 1,500 lb. 250 cu. ft. 10,000 gp

As for the amount of gold pieces you can fit, I have no idea. If anyone else can figure that out, I'd love to know the answer.

Well, there are 50 coins in a pound. I imagine a Type I bag would be able to hold 12,500 coins.

As for "space" inside a Type I bag, for example... I think it would be a cube one meter to a side... roughly. It doesn't have to be a cube-sized shape though. It could be 1/2󪻒 (in meters), or 0.1�0.5�20

Thx, so in weight terms it can hold 12k of gold... but in that size, how much gold can it get? 1k? I need to get an idea

Pretty close, it's about 1.46 meters on a side. (Sorry I like math) :)
