Stagecoach Silver

[Little Owl]

As I've been busily acquiring precious metals thanks to our Glorious Leader, I get occasional spam from Northwest Territorial Mint.  This one I found particularly interesting...

They talk it up as a practical barter medium for when you "need to get out of Dodge".

I know that minters, especially silver minters, often suggest a bartering use for their product, but this one seems to go a little further in suggesting that the need arises from having to flee.  Assuming they know their target audience, it says a lot about why people are buying silver.

Yes you did.  I never read the trading post.
