There is no more silver and gold takes forever to pick up off the ground in large quantities.

Silver is found in large patches and only about 4 or 5 exist on land. Gold is basically scattered small veins or piece found all over the planet.

The same silver mines have been mined for thousands of years.

If you are holding silver you are holding a piece of the earths core that pushed to the surface billions of years ago.
