The main thing that folks are missing in the gold buying discussion is that it is NOT something you use when the SHTF. It is something you use AFTER the SHTF. Bears repeating. Gold is for storing and maintaining wealth for when any perceived SHTF crisis is over. If any precious metal is to be accepted for trading during a SHTF scenario, it will likely be junk silver coins, because of the smaller denomination value and verifiability of authenticity.
