I'm buying 1 and 2 ounce bars but also supplementing with some 1/10oz and 1/4oz coins. The smaller coins end up costing more per weight up front but if your goal is to have something for trading with people in case the shit really does hit the fan, it's not a bad idea to have smaller amounts like this. And I figure if this really goes off and it skyrockets, the little bit extra I'm paying for those coins now will not make much difference in the long run.
If I had the cash for it right now, I'd be buying some 10oz and bigger bars but I'm late to the party and only able to get myself like 20oz total right now. If prices are still reasonable when I get my work bonus in about 10 days, I'm dumping it ALL in.
