If you search google image for doubloons, you can see how cool they are and how must have been to capture a ship with coffers filled with doubloons.Also the Spanish gold ingots from that time looked very cool (also google image for Spanish gold ingots) unlike how they look today or how are depicted in the game both the doubloons in the inventory and the gold and silver ingots. The three sizes of bags of doubloons that you can find when boarding ships look very cool, though.
Also buying a trading license from the Dutch West India Company in Willemstad, needed to legally enter the Spanish cities, can be made only for doubloons.For 20 days (minimum) the cost is 308 doubloons, for 180 days (maximum) the cost is 938 doubloons.That license is easy to lose if you attack another ship (excepting pirates) so it is better to buy the license for short terms although is not as cost effective as the maximum one.
To me, a successful pirate is the one that amasses a huge treasure. :) A goal for the game can be to gather like 1.000.000 doubloons, not pesos. :)
PS Of course if you are in need of pesos to pay your crew or to buy a ship, you can always exchange you doubloons at the banker for pesos.
