If a general collapse is to occur, currencies will lose all value. Gold will used to establish credit systems. You won't be carving slivers off your double eagle to buy bread, you will be using your double eagle as collateral for credit to buy bread. Just like in the old days.

Barter currencies will probably include cigarettes, alcohol, ammo, and (my favorite) food items. I propose a new currency based on small bags of beans and rice.
