I think we would need to know what you mean by changed hands

As in, "Hey, I'm thirsty, let me shave off a piece of gold for that water bottle." Not looting.

No prob, I understand.

If anyone has ever watched the tv series "Jericho", that is more like i was insinuating might happen. If something ever did happen. We'd have to barter with whatever we had of value, whether or not it is silver, gold, water, ammo or anything else out there. Everything out there has a price and a buyer. Watch Waterworld? Everytime i see that movie( i guess if i'm bored and nothing else is on), i hope it don't get to that point where i'd have to recycle my Pee.

I have several thoughts on this.

1) I have bought gold and silver and pre 65 coins.......... no one is really going to sell in bulk to you so the gold and silver if they make change is going to be worthless bills. And to most people that dime is still a dime even if it is real silver content.

2) Never trade something that can be used against you. They figure you have more and will come and take it now that they have ammo.

It comes down to trust and in a real SHTF civil unrest event you cant really trust anyone outside of those you trust with your life today.
