Tommaso, >>Also, I keep wondering what happens when you go through a metal detector at an airport with two rolls of Maple Leafs.

Put them in your carry one bag.

Yes the trip to Australia is an expensive transaction cost. Was trying to point out that a few people on this planet can easily use metals as a currency. Jay has pointed out that in HK the banks still deal in metals. I have not asked if the banks in Europe deal with metals. Maybe someone on this thread could tell us if it is easy to use metals as a currency in Europe.

Our CB has made sure that we can not use metals as currency in his banks. Wonder why. <ggg>
