They are stores of value, not money.
Money is, by definition, a store of value.
Money is BOTH a store of value, and a medium of exchange. Without something being both, it's not money.
Okay, and gold is both.
Try walking into any store using gold to buy anything; at a pawn shop they might swap/barter with you.
