I certainly agree about silver vs gold. Who, in a crisis, is going to swap anything for a gold maple leaf? But a sizable cache of silver coins of various denominations, “bag silver” coins, would have intrinsic value AND flexible barter capabilities. Many also believe silver to have a strong likelihood of greater increase in value over time compared to gold.

But ultimately, food, water, fuel, medical supplies, batteries, etc - and bullets to defend them - will be the only currency in an extreme and prolonged breakdown of civil order: which I believe the powers-that-be are purposefully arranging for us.

And another point: when the US goes, where could we flee that would offer anything different than the totalitarian system they would set up here? This is a plan for GLOBAL domination, and they would tolerate no safe havens for Yanks, or anyone else, anywhere on the planet.

Ferfal says silver coins was better in Argentina...gold attracts too much attention....he said gold wedding rings might be OK
You look like some poor schmuck trying to raise some cash that way
He has a blog and a book about how he survived Argentina's hyper-inflation crisis of 2001
