Gold and silver are metals known to humankind since millennia. They accompanied us as a metals symbolising ancient deities, then as a means of value, currency, eventually becoming special class of assets known as safe haven. It is interesting how their existence influenced humankind. And how the way we treated them in the past translates to modern standards.
History of silver in the monetary system of the United States is turbulent and interesting from both historical and numismatic point of view. It is worth to outline and introduce it to our readers. Especially since at Metal Market we recently had pleasure of adding Peace Dollars, straight from the Royal Canadian Mint, to our range of products. Bullion inspired by classic, historic American design.
