I can look back to my teens in the 60s, and remember folks talking about the collapse of the dollar, the economic system, using silver coins to get by...

My Silver coins collapsed over the last year. But at least they are still worth their face value.

They’re not bad to have.

The one thing they never tell you, is that if you have and there are massive numbers of have-nots, guess what happens.

I’m not convinced there’s a sure fire way to survive the apocalypse.

My Dad and I got rid of all of our silver coins in 1980, when silver was at $50 an ounces.

Silver prices collapsed shortly thereafter.

It was probably the only time in my life that I sold something at the top of the market.

Don’t worry.....your silver coins at present are worth substantially more than face value. Silver will go up again. They’re better than paper fiat currency, which our fouled-up government keeps printing day and night.

Until possession of silver coin is outlawed.

Then they are a liability.
