The History of Gold Silver Ratio by Jeff Neilson
A brief history of the gold:silver ratio:
Notice the dates: fixed for many years, then it floated over 40:1 when silver demonetized
Roaring 20s brought it down to 16:1
Great Depression, ratio went to 100:1, no significant industrial use
After the post WW2 boom, it went way down, industrial use and electronics
Early 1970s, US off gold standard and individuals could own gold - look how it went up
Hunt Brothers event bottoming it out at 9:1
Then it went back up, over 90:1 during the recession of the 1990s
Dot-com boom sent it under 60:1
Panic of 2008 sent it over 80:1 - deflation, less industry use
Recent stimulus sent it to 60:1

Gold and Silver for wealth preservation
If we consider that a gold coin is worth around $2,000 or so today. Then we can get an idea of how it could work again to carry gold/silver. Lets say gold is valued at $10,000 someday. That would mean that small fractional coins would be very easy to carry and worth a great deal of purchasing power. Instead of carrying around $100 or $1,000 notes we could carry a couple small coins. Each merchant has a scale or scanner to verify the gold.
