“We will go to a barter economy, gold and silver coins, etc., will be worth something, other things maybe not as much. Diamonds for instance will be a dime a dozen, everyone will try and use them but they are neither scarce or will be very valuable, except for antique and certain pieces of jewelry.”
All of that will be worth very little. In a barter economy wealth is:
Land, water, animals, guns, ammo.
exactly
Land, water, animals, guns, ammo.

“Land, water, animals, guns, ammo.” you forgot robots.
“All of that will be worth very little. In a barter economy wealth is:
Land, water, animals, guns, ammo.”
That’s right, you can not eat gold and silver. If you have the items you listed above you would be a rich man.
I have all four where I live. You forgot fishing pole.
Land, water, animals, guns, ammo...
And SKILLS that would be of value to others out of necessity.
