I've been poking my nose around in the silver world for several years, but I've gotta admit.....I've never heard of Silver Shot until now! Just did some Googling about it, and now I want some. In the event that silver would ever need to be traded for goods, currency, food, ammo, etc., that shot would be the perfect trading medium. It's just not identifiable for purity like bars, rounds and coins are, but a coin/PM dealer should be able to ID it very easily.

Save the 1 oz. and larger stuff for larger trades/needs, and use the shot for currency like the old miners used to use "gold dust". I like the idea!
