Would be nice to have.

Why would you like to drop gold?

So he can put it on display, throw it at poor people and hit his wife with the stuff when she refuses to cook.

(Unless of course you have a husband.... )

I've wanted this since Morrowind where you could drop single coins (and maybe stacks, can't remember). You can place gold in containers, should be easy enough to be able to drop it.

You could do it in Oblivion, iirc.

afaik, skyrim does not have loose coin stacks like morrowind, and only has single individual coins, which could be a problem for placing large sums of money in an area, but would also be a ton of fun as well. It could be a simple hack which just deletes the money in your inventory (the amount you specify) and then spawns that amount of gold in front of you...

EDIT: Though...having 15,000......60,000....1,000,000...or more physics props in an environment could very well crash the game, like spawning thousands of watermelons in oblivion. It could be simple enough to make it spawn a coin purse containing the proper amount of gold, but this would be similar to just placing the gold in a chest or shelf....

Yeah, create a nice big treasure horde to swim around in.
