I just started playing again and noticed I had a few thousand iron ore in my bank.

 

 

 

So, I figured I'd make some money by turning them into steel, so I bought a bunch of coal and I'm currently smelting em into bars.

 

 

 

So, do I sell em as bars for a definate sale, or do I sell them as cannon balls?

 

 

 

Im not sure how either of those sell, but the smithing XP would be nice to have.

Making cannonballs is very slow and boring , so I would sell the steel bars.

if you just want money, sell the bars. if you want some smithing xp also, make the cballs
