Looking for wisdom - I will be purchasing ammunition for a 12 gauge shotgun and for a Glock 19 this week.

1) Do you have any recommendations for what brand and how much to buy?

2) As a medium of exchange, when the dollar tanks, which would be better to hold as a store of wealth for barter?

I’d say buy the low recoil 9 pellet buckshot loads for the 12 gauge.Get some sabot slugs too,for special occasions.Any load for the pistol will be ok,the shotgun is the killer.

I'd stick to good dependable US-made ammo, if you can afford it. No substitute for quality ammo.
