There is a Federal Reserve Bank in every country in the world, except North Korea and Iran. The Federal Reserve "paper money inflation scam" is worldwide, there is no stable currency.
So if I gave you a dollar, which one would you want?
This one:
or this one:
Which one would you put in your piggy bank and hold onto, and which one would you trade away as soon as possible?
You would trade the paper money immediately because it loses value.
That is why paper money is so popular and no one trades in silver.

That part of it doesn't really bother me.

I actually can't use either of them for 95% of the things I spend money on. At least not conveniently.JohnHurt wrote: ↑Sat Nov 18, 2023 8:21 pmAnd you can't buy something on the internet with a coin.ken_sylvania wrote: ↑Sat Nov 18, 2023 5:21 pmActually, if you gave me a silver dollar the reason I might hold onto it longer than a paper dollar is because of the hassle of exchanging it for its value.

Re: The Mark of the Beast in Revelation
You could use it to buy things at face value. An interesting quirk is that it me can use silver and gold coins to trade for things at face value and the taxable basis of the transaction is the face value if done so.
I used to know a guy who was trying to figure out a way to put that into practice, but it would require a “handshake” contract to use such coins.
