If the system collapses supply lines will be interrupted n food and commodities will be at best not as easily acquired can someone explain how you will buy bread with gold? Will you shave a sliver off a bar. Is there a denomination small enough to purchase toilet paper?

Fine. You're sitting on a pile of gold on paper, owned and held by someone in another place. Good luck with that if the system collapses.
Unless you have a stockpile of gold in your home that you can convert to usable sub-units - your paper gold bars are useless.
Same for BitCoin (I like the idea) if the internet goes away - bitcoin is fucking useless.
Barter, trade, learn a skill, provide for your own.
