seeds.
silver, old silver us coins yes. everyone knows what they are.
gold i don't see much value in shtf, how do you know its real or its %. lots of fake gold out there now. its also very heavy.
fishing hooks, fishing lures, snares.
wire.
nails.
screws.
salt,pepper, spices.
multivitamins.
bic lighters
matches
sheets of plastic
alcohol
compasses
leather working tools
