I was thinking of buying old silver dollars also and now may be the time. I just can't get my wife to go along with the idea that things are going to get worse and metals are going to rise.

We'll see monday how the markets react and then maybe there will be a reaction in the commodities market.

They are legal US money and recognizable by everyone.

My neighbor went with me when I bought them...he bought something called 'silver rounds' that had 99.999 % silver written on them. I asked him who wrote that on them and how many people would believe that in a crisis situation. (assay required?)

That's why I bought US dollars...no questions/doubts about their content.They'll be easy to exchange in reasonable amounts.
