last I checked the melt weight value was 12x the face value…

Which is why you want your silver in small chunks. Cuttin’ up silver dollars to pay for stuff is a pain. Silver dimes, by that reckoning, would each be worth $1.20. But that’s pre-TSHTF, and I’d imagine that once the Almighty Worthless Paper Dollar becomes birdcage lining, today’s dollar valuations would quickly become meaningless.

Of course another thing that may become readily tradeable - in one sense or the other - is ammo.
