I just bought some silver eagles. It’s nice to hold something with intrinsic value in your hands.
And I may need to use them for bartering and melting down for werewolf bullets when the zombie apocalypse begins.
At a little under $25 each, taxes and shipping, that’s not too bad. They’re pretty, too, and George lets me pet ‘em.
I too have silver eagles but lately all I buy is scrap silver; US dimes, quarters and half dollars from before 1965. $100 dollars face value of these coins contains about 71-1/2 troy oz of silver and if the SHTF, they are recognizable currency which may facilitate trade and bartering.
