Ever since the dungeon revamp, turning in fomor scrolls will turn over twice as much money than it was before the revamp. For example mimic scrolls used to give 6k, but now it gives a hefty 12k. The revamp has also made all dungeons significantly more harder so this doesn't method seems ideal, BUT some dungeons did not change, such as Albey dungeon. In Albey/Silver Gem, the normal/red/metal skeletons, lagodessas and everything else are still the old versions of themselves and not like the newer buffed versions of the Rabbie or Ciar monsters.
You could try selling holy water. I am not sure how much they cost nowadays but its one of the few in-game items that sells well since doing the ptjs are a bit tedious. Bangor's church ptj was the easiest church ptj, but ever since the dungeon revamp, barri dungeon's goblins and imps are much stronger.
I remember doing Cource exploration is pretty good if you got the inventory space. I gather from the Pantay Swamps for treasure chests. The swamp has the least amount of artifacts that could be in pieces in my experience. I go to the La Terra Highlands for statues while gathering using a Partner with high likability (for double drops [for up to four artifacts per statue!]). Bring them to Voight and hope he doesn't disintegrate your hard earned artifacts. Then sell the successfully appraised junk to him. If you got a box, you sell the box and the item inside for what is essentially double the money.
Restoring fossils in Zardine is okay if you can do the minigame and do not mind mindlessly mining at the sulfur pits. If you are an elf, you can alternatively mine the dangerous sulfur golems (using hide between each attempt) to get a substantially higher fossil drop rate. If you want, you could go ahead and kill the golems since mining from them will not only reduce their defense and protection but their attack power will drop like a rock.
Ballooning can be good if you have rank 1 firebolt and a chaincasting firewand. Killing 51stars worth of wyverns (17 non-hungry/ferocious ice wyverns) will net you 17.8k from Kelpie (or some cool loot like Thames Boots or Hebona Shoes).
Rafting can net you some good money if you are equipped for it. Intermediate magic and Archery are ideal due to their very long range. Having Thunder at rank 1 and a lightning wand that either reduces casting time or mana cost is ideal. Or if you are brave and have good archery skills, crash shot will destroy bunched-up hobgoblins. Rafting can be a hit and a miss due to glitches that can teleport you around the raft (spellwalk does not work on the raft). You can exchange 11 stars for Teeth Pattern Boots which you can sell back to the npc for 4k each. This is certainly a better deal than exchanging 54 stars for a piddly 2.9k exploration experience.
Those are the in-game-money-making methods that I can think of that does not involve getting gachapon items and selling those. I hope I have sparked some money making gears in you and good luck!
PS: If you're rolling in much dosh and hate going back and forth from the bank to deposit your hard earned clink, you can get the Item Bag (8x10) from most general store. Fill the bag with 20 large gold bags and let the bag expire and lock up. You can still buy stuff from stores and picked-up money will still be stored in the locked bag. The only problem with this is that you cannot take gold out of the bags and divide them. This means no dropping your gold, putting gold into donation boxes or putting them into a trade window. For what its worth, its a 2x4 wallet that holds 1 million gold.
