19. So how is this really going to work?

Edited on Tue May-31-11 12:59 PM by EC

Do they really think that minimum wage store clerks are going to weigh gold for payments? And how do you give out change, in ore or in $$'s? This is not going to work so well for store owners, unless their clerks can tell real ores from fake.

Is anything that shines going to be used as tender?

Wait a minute, just checked the link...the way this looks - if I can find a dealer to pay me the amount of money a silver dollars silver content is worth (instead of face value of $1.00)I can collect that amount. I wonder if that would be more than what a coin collector would pay for an old silver dollar?
