Stan: Gold:
The reason Gold and Silver are ultimately overwhelmingly more valuable than other metals - even if the other metals are in much lower supply is simple. Couldn't be more simple. Gold and Silver have been the metals of choice for thousands of years! That isn't going to change if there is an economic collapse.
Besides, regardless of how much there (theoretically) is of it in supply, it is miniscule compared to the demand - should the fiat system ever collapse.
Try buying food with zinc or lead or copper in a barter economy.
It's the best insurance ever invented!
