Gold or Silver??

If you can find any.

A bunch of silver coins will be more useful in trade than a few gold coins.

.

Gold is used mostly for jewelry then for coins.

Silver has many industrial uses plus jewelry and coins.

So as the depression hits Silver will drop in price due to lowered need from an industrial use. But it will rise due to inflation. What will really happen? Nobody knows.

Take a look at Platinum. It was around $2000/oz a while ago. But since one of it's main uses is in Catilytic Converters in cars and car makers are getting hammered it is also diving.

buying wine and reselling it a couple years later. Of course he knows his stuff and researches the subject.

Maybe the question should be

Silver or beans? or maybe
Silver or toilet paper? or
Silver or generator? or even
Silver or Smith & Wesson?

Have you been to a local gun show? You could find all sorts of things to "invest" in, including silver.

I'm thinking of selling a little gold and buying silver.

The problem is I can't find any silver to buy at anywhere near the nominal quoted price for silver. If I could buy it at no more than $1.00/oz. premium over spot, this would be a good time to buy silver.

Silver is more volatile than gold, so you can at least theoretically do better buying low and selling high.

Of course I could be wrong.
