with morrowind, money was acctually an item (of sorts) and could pick it up as well as put it down.
Could you actually drop it in Morrowind? Or was it restricted to dropping gold into containers? I have to admit, I cannot remember anymore.
And Gold is an actual item in Oblivion as well, it just doesn't exist in stacks anywhere in the game world, just in single coins. The only place where you'll find more than one coin (in stack) is in containers.
