Roman coins were made of silver, but when there was a need for more money and not enough silver, Rome reduced the amount of silver in its coins thus allowing them to make more coins. Coins made of silver and gold must also contain an alloy that makes them more durable. Rome eventually reduced the amount of silver in its coins from 96% to 4%. Merchants demanded more of the lower silver coins causing inflation and the military refused to be paid in Roman coins. Eventually, the Roman government also refused to accept its own money for the payment of taxes. Bartering became more popular among the people.

Note that this does not apply if the stock was in a tax-sheltered account such as an IRA or a 401k. If a bank went out of business causing the stock to become worthless, you can claim it as a loss. If the value of the stock went from $200 a share to $.02 a share, it is not yet worthless -- no deduction until you sell it.
