[QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1676802, member: 75105"]Right now silver is worth about $28 an ounce. If SHTF, how many people only have 1 ounce coins? What if you go somewhere and want to buy a bottle of water, you hand the clerk an ASE, what are you supposed to get back in change? Cash? Ya right, cash is now worthless (scenario). I see a lot of people talking about HOW to prepare for SHTF, but I see little talk on what to do once it happens. I would like to see smaller units of silver, cheaper. Some people invest in silver dimes, quarters, etc. But the weights of them go into the decimal points. Some coins are more worn than others, so if someone gives you a worn out morgan dollar, your not getting as much silver. They do make small units of silver. 1 Grain, 10 grain, half gram, gram, 5 gram, etc. However, the premiums on them are very high. Too high to even consider purchasing them. The cheapest I could find one gram of silver was $2 a gram. This was in a 10 gram purchase. A gram of silver right now is only worth around a dollar. I would like to see smaller denominational weights of silver become cheaper, that way we have some kind of "change" if SHTF.[/QUOTE]
