I was wondering if anyone has any advice on purchasing junk silver coins to be used as exchange if there is a complete financial collaspe. I live in the UK and the obvious coinage would be pre 1947 silver, sixpences, shillings etc which are 50% silver. However I've always prefered the US "mercury dimes" which are 90% silver.This is not this countries legal tender, but neither are the pre 1947 british coinage.
I do have American Silver Eagles, and Canadian Silver Maples but in the event of a total fiat collaspe, I think these would buy too much. I think smaller coinage would be better for day to day food purchases, for example. Nny thoughts?
