I could show you a picture of a 1400 Bar World Conquest. Doesn't prove anything. 10k is a lot of money for 1462. He has no magistrates whatsoever so presumably he's built no buildings.
How many years of the game has he been big enough to consistantly have a yearly income to amass that amount? That's 20 years @ 500 ducats a year, or 40 years @ 250 ducats a year. And that's surplus to what's being spent.
I'm not saying it didn't happen, I'm just saying there's really not a lot of evidence in OP.
Well, you asked for pictures. Which he did provide. If you still doubt him, you could ask for more specific pictures. If he was cheating I'd think he would have more prestige and legitimacy. And he does have magistrates, which isn't too surprising considering he's in a bad tech group.
