I can think of a few people who would. And know they likely wouldn’t hesitate to screech at a Teenage clerk. Who doesn’t know how to handle a transaction in Gold and Silver.

I was mostly talking about the fringe cases after it becomes legal. Rather than in the context of a broader societal shift towards paying in Gold and Silver.

And even if there was such a shift. It’s unlikely going to become part of daily transactions. Unless they’ve recently discovered a shitload more of it.

It’d be comparatively easier to rotate FRN notes out of circulation in exchange for new notes. As even if it’s technically possible to exchange a new note for its equal value in gold/silver. Most people are unlikely to do so. Viewing the hassle as too high.
