I still think labor and supplies are worth more than precious metals. You have to melt down and process silver to get colloidal silver. And what use does gold have? It's heavy, so it makes a good paperweight or hammer in an emergency. If you melt and process it you can use it in electronics.
In a SHTF scenario, food, water, medicine/medical supplies, and booze win over heavy metals every time.
Don't forget ammo. It could become the currency of the future.
Yeah, I did forget ammo.
In the short term chaos sure, but soon after stability returns gold and silver are king
