Earlier people were talking about the cost to mine silver. Well here is an article of costs to mine gold:...
I would definitely agree ancient silver and gold is safer than currency nowadays. Currency is pretty gross actually.
There are LOADS of arguments in favor of silver and gold. I would not dismiss any automatically. Maybe its a function of you not being here very...

I am similar. I have no idea what the future will hold, so I try to invest in many things. Maybe my stocks will be worthless, maybe my ancient...
I am not sure of what type of silver you are referring to, or when your "younger days" were. 20+ years ago for ASE and similar, (pure silver...
