My theory on Pirate Lords:
Spoiler
Jack is supposed to have inherited/stole his piece of eight. Barbossa was a captain long before he joined Jack's crew. He lost his ship and joined Jack's crew with the intention of mutinying upon Jack. (which he succeeded in doing). So Barbossa could have gotten his piece long before Jack came into the picture.
Also the Pirate Lords aren't just chosen whenever a new fearsome pirate comes into play, but instead are the original pirates who captured calypso or something like that. This is happened long before the first movie.
Remember, Jack most likely stole his piece of eight.
