Hiding precious metals can be a good option, but it doesn’t have to be. This is the case, for example, if you forget the hiding place or haven’t told your potential heirs about it. Many a valuable item has been lost this way — sewn into a garment or walled up, for instance. Some treasures sometimes lie dormant for millennia before they are found. Very old coins or pieces of jewelry are discovered time and again.
For instance, a 2,000-year-old Phoenician coin, minted in Spain, turned up in England. It was tossed into a bus driver’s cash box in the 1950s. Now, the grandson of the transport company’s former chief cashier has donated it to a museum. Sometimes metal detectorists also make discoveries. Back in England, a metal detectorist discovered a gold coin, presumably brought by a Viking army and minted about 1,000 years ago. The coin was made of solid gold and was likely an imitation of earlier solidus coins. Since the coin had two holes drilled through it, it probably served as both an amulet and “portable wealth.”
In southern Chile, near the Strait of Magellan, archaeologists found a Spanish silver coin dating from 1584. This coin played a role in a Christian ceremony marking the founding of a Spanish colonial settlement. Today, the challenge is to store physical gold and silver securely. It is simpler to invest in mining companies and thus bet on the preservation of the purchasing power of precious metals.
Skeena Gold & Silver - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/skeena-gold-silver-ltd/ - is developing a high-grade, low-cost gold-silver project (Eskay Creek) in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle. The project is fully permitted and is now under construction. Production is scheduled to begin and initial cash flow is expected in the second quarter of 2027. Two other projects that were previously in production are also in the spotlight.
Sierra Madre Gold and Silver - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/sierra-madre-gold-silver-ltd/ - successfully commenced production at its La Guitarra project (gold and silver) in Mexico early last year. In addition, the company has made a second silver mine acquisition in Mexico, which includes three fully permitted underground mines and a flotation plant. In the first quarter of 2026, more than 128,000 ounces of silver equivalent were sold, and first-quarter revenue reached a record high.
