CBDC is not currency.  The most accurate equivalent is a ration card because it's purpose is to restrict purchases.

Do not disregard the mystical aspect of gold.
Of course, now or even come the digital apocalypse, you won't be able to exchange a gold sovereign for a trolley full of groceries in Tesco. Why would you even try?
But not too far away an intermediary will want your gold and you will simply exchange a small portion for the current mode of currency, exactly what we do now - that's how it has been for thousands of years - the allure of the yellow metal will not go away just because we might have some digital dystopian system forced upon us.
Beware the naysayers that say your precious gold will be worthless - they are either jealous or are indeed themselves the temple moneychangers in disguise.
Remember that we are not just dealing with a physical entity here; gold has magical properties beyond its fiscal worth, that is why we are drawn to it, that is why it is coveted.
Keep the faith and keep the gold. Keep stacking and hold till the end!!!

Could be wrong but no 1898 double eagle I know of had a cc (carson city) mint mark?

Picked up a little beauty this week. I really like the eagle - not sure of the revamped Lady Liberty though - looks like she's been smoking something funny to me.

Nor for sale sorry this one's a keeper 😉

Not from America just grey old UK - but I do like my Double Eagles.
Thought I'd hang out - see what all the fuss is about!
