thoughts on investing in “casting grains” instead of coins (gold, silver, etc)?

is it a good idea or bad? i know coins are better for faster trade, but when it comes right down to it is an equal weight of .999% pure gold, silver, platinum, or whatever just as good in the long run?

i just ask because sometimes a few grains is much easier to acquire. thankyou
