They're stored as 32 bit unsigned integers in eqemu and I don't actually see any bounds checking, though I admittedly didn't look that hard. The most likely thing is that you would wrap around and suddenly have 0, but the amount of cash is used in various contexts and copied between different data types in parts of the system that I wouldn't rule out the possibility of an exploit somewhere without a ton more code analysis than I feel like doing.
Thats exactly why the "maximum" level in Asheron's Call at release was 126. That very same number was the precise amount of total XP acquired when you "dinged" 126.
