The "silver coin" method is taken from the frontier dayz (and before). It does work when you have nothing else. But, I have a BERKEY "light". I also have many 55 gal food grade drums full of water stored. I store water for several years only using clorine to "kill the bugs". Whether or not there are "bugs" in it matters not because the BERKEY removes 99.999% of "whatever" is in it anyway. They're a great purifier and are used regularly in third world countries for their "scum water". Cordially, A.P2 "In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot".
