I do, actually. That's kind of the point, your farm and your goods would become much more valuable than any piece of metal. Farms, as great as they are, also can't produce all of their goods instantaneously.
Here's a scenario that is more true to life than what I've seen put forward: I'm a merchant who sells food in a populated city in Venezuela. I sell all my food for as much gold as I can get. Now I'm hungry. Where do I go to exchange my gold for food? My customers? Other vendors like me? Won't they want to hold on to something for themselves?
