Don't be tricked into buying gold ore and gold bars for coins. Price may look like you're getting a deal but really are getting ripped-off. it takes 2 gold ores to produce 1 gold bar and 4 gold bars to produce 1 gold coin. Ex: 100 Gold Ores bought for 50gc: 100 gold ore => 50 gold bars => 12 gold coins with 2 left over bars.
Even with buffs you don't gain anything from it. Ex: 100 gold ore => 100 gold bars=> 50 gold coins
You're much better of finding your own deposits and rewards from adventures.
Joining a guild is a good idea to help you through those bumps that sometimes make you want to quit playing...but don't take advantage of a nice guild (Don't turn around and sell their goods in the TO, only take what you need, say thank you etc. etc.) work hard to one day become a contributing member.

When you see a 'waiting quest' shrink it so you don't keep thinking it's a quest you're working on/should be working on.
Not sure if it has been mentioned or not (probably has) but starting out you should only build the houses that it requires you to build.... anything more is just a waste because you will tear them all down and build noble's as you grow.
when you start selling resources, try to put small stack ( 2k, 3k) rather than big stack ( 10k, 20k) at the time. Don't only focus on getting coin, get others resources, too.
If you are buying gold ore for 200 gc per 400 ore (or 50 gc for 100 ore as you said), you are not getting any profit because that is the breakeven point. Producing gold coin from buying ores and bars are only profitable,(after accounting for coal and buff cost), you must buy gold ore at lower price, i.e. 130 gc/400 ore.
Especially for more expensive mines like gold ones, Sell the mine when its about to collapse to regain some resources.
