In a literal sense we have gold coins. I guess it's interesting that governments mint and sell them for a thin premium on bullion prices. And then, yeah, I'm sure there are things you could buy with a pocket full of Krugerrands. Really though, governments are giving you this opportunity to go off their currency standard. If you want to keep part of your wealth, near-cash, in gold coins, you don't have to use American Eagles to do it.
