The gold will lost its value so NO value just like Nikel. What makes gold & platinum important because they are rare!

We wouldn't be able to buy much. Gold is rare; there's not enough of it to go around (which is why everyone- or just about- has abandoned the gold standard), and it's also HEAVY. You'd need a team of mules to transport your wallet.

Although I suppose that would make for a good pick-up line, if you were an early adopter...

It may not need much transport. See my reply.

@JoyfulSilence Do you honestly think people are going to carry that much untraceable money around unprotected?

I think some people would accept them once they get weighed etc.

I asked Google how many pounds of gold it would take to buy a car. It said:
With gold trading at approximately $4,550 per troy ounce, it takes just 0.68 pounds of gold to buy an average new car costing $45,000.

That would fit in my pocket!

Google says
Roughly the volume of a single standard Matchbox toy car.

Yet heavier!

@JoyfulSilence and now I'm sick to my stomach. I had the chance to buy 24 karat gold at $371 a gram in 1982 and decided not to invest in it.

Invest in a 24 acre carrot farm instead!
