Posted, as gold appears to be set to close above $500 for the first time in many years.

Gold is useful as a signal that the Fed is too tight or too loose with money supply. Used as currency it leaves a lot to be desired.

What would you rather find in your granny's attic: a dusty cigar box containing 100 $20 bills from 1920, or a box containing 100 $20 gold pieces?
