Dukes do not own worlds, at least not in their capacity of duke (Archdukes do get en entire world for a fief).Well, a Baron isn't as high in the Noble hierarchy as a Duke and a Duke owns a world, so it's really probably only worth the fief of land that the Baron would be entitled to. Maybe a continent or a small moon or asteroid - how much is that worth? And it also depends on what is on that land - orchards, gold, radioactives, The Spice!, an animal preserve, a prison, lanthanum mines, a great city, farmland?
Sure you can. You put it up for auction and whatever the final bid is is the price.But there's also the leadership/respect/political aspect of the title. It's not something you can put a price on, I think.

Joking aside, what I'm asking for is opinions about the sort of sum that would sound reasonable to people. If you were reading an adventure that said that the PCs could expect to get X CrImps for it, what sort of sum would you consider too low to be plausible and what sort of sum would be too high to be plausible?
No, the number I'm looking for is money.Money? How many starships can you bring to bear to protect it might be the more accurate number you're looking for.
Um... if something has a certain value to one person, it has more or less the same value to anyone who would be able to resell it to that person.I don't think you can come up with a definitive price. It could be almost worthless to once person and priceless to another. Too many variables.
As I've already said:A little more background on what fief the Barony entitles would give you a better picture.
The title is an honor title, not a high title. The recipient gets a vote in the Moot and access to Imperial noble society, that's all.
