   Now take that gold doubloon to the convenience store
   and try to buy some Twinkies and a beer  :-)

   Like many hard assets, gold is only worth what the
   next guy thinks he can sell it for. Frankly I'm not
   even sure where in town I could convert a gold coin
   to paper money or anything else, there's just no
   infrastructure anymore for using gold as 'real money'.

   Hell, the convenience store clerk would have to have
   an x-ray florescence spectrometer to even tell gold
   from gold-plate, or brass, or bismuth. You can take
   a hot air gun and change a USA 25-cent piece to a really
   nice gold color ... but it's not gold.

   So, nothing against having some gold coin, but you
   are gonna be more liquid using some more intangible
   forms of currency. If you want WW3-proof, well, a
   big barn full of whisky, toilet paper, tampons and
   some heavily-preserved food-like stuffs such as
   Twinkies. In some areas you can add antibiotics
   and opium. These are what would be "most valuable".
