@VooDooMedic @charliebrownau What I have just recently started doing was going back to paper for most purchases and putting the coins I am receiving in change into a large plastic jar. That's the 5c, 10c, 20c, 50c and 1 dollar coins. Not the 2 dollar unless the are some sort of commemorative coin. The 2 dollar as you are aware is actually smaller and has less metal than the 1 dollar, so is more akin to paper.
@VooDooMedic @charliebrownau Buying rolls of coins and stashing them away safely as a part of your post collapse preparation is worth doing. I am actually looking into what's involved and I think it maybe difficult to get rolls of coins from the banks if you don't have a business account.
@VooDooMedic @charliebrownau Australian coins do have a percentage of copper, but it's not just about the melt value, based on what we saw in other collapsing economies, the coins tend to retain value and can be used to make purchases of goods and services.
@VooDooMedic @charliebrownau @Tfmonkey Modern Australian coinage which began in 1966 has no silver in it as opposed to US coinage which goes back much further and has silver in circulating coins minted prior to 1964.
