<p>[QUOTE=&quot;peanut3342, post: 884613, member: 25126&quot;]I may not have been perfectly clear with my original post. However, I found the responses so intriguing that I had to refrain from refining my point until I read some of the fantastic posts you folks placed.</p><p><br /></p><p>I wasn&#039;t really speaking of complete economic collapse just the death of the physical dollar and a replacement with, for example &quot;debit cards&quot;! In effect doing away with dollar bills and pocket change whereas the concept of money is gone is.</p><p><br /></p><p>A situation where the United States mint is dissolved and everyone is payed with credits and cash is no longer. Not necessarily a situation of economic collapse but a scenario of termination of physical money.</p><p><br /></p><p>Seems to me that the freedom of physical cash puts our ever growing hungry government at a disadvantage for ensuring 100% tax collection. I.e. paid under the table, cash on the barrel head, and non-reporting of funds. With a credit system and a plastic card no transactions will be completed without the government knowing about the transaction. </p><p><br /></p><p>Under this scenario, what will happen to the &quot;numismatic value&quot; of out collections??:whistle:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
