Why Buy Silver Bullion?

Scientists have unearthed evidence that humans began separating silver from lead as early as the fourth century BC. The Lydians (of modern-day Turkey) began striking silver coins around 700 BC, and the economy of ancient Rome would have collapsed - even sooner - without the precious metal as one of its trading mainstays.

Today, silver continues to flourish as one of the most treasured resources on earth. In an era of troubling economic instability, investors increasingly turn to silver bullion as a hedge against inflation, a tool for barter, a means of diversification and as a tangible asset to safeguard their hard-earned wealth.

A Closer Look: Why Invest in Silver?

Silver Bars

During the hustle-and-bustle of day to day life, most of us can’t kick the uncomfortable, nagging thought: Times Are Tough. Indeed, the economy is on a downward spiral, people are out of work and the stock market continues to swing.

And it can be frightening.

So how do you protect your wealth, diversify your investment portfolio and provide your family with a bartering tool, all in one fell swoop?

At Provident Metals, we believe that investing in silver bullion is one important answer.

Indeed, the lustrous, white metal has been at the center of trade and commerce since the dawn of civilization. Mentioned in the holy book of Genesis, silver was also used as a primary means of exchange within the ancient Chinese Empire.

Today, silver continues to persevere as one of the most precious metals on earth, boasting a multitude of industrial uses: jewelry, silverware, dentistry, photography, electronics, mirrors, and even (get this!) food coloring.

And as a diversification strategy, silver bullion has proven priceless. Not only does silver provide a hedge against inflation and a long-term store of value, but it is a tangible investment. Silver coins, bars and rounds can be stored and transferred on your terms, providing maximum flexibility and versatility, while also making a thoughtful gift for loved ones.

Lastly, in the event of an economic emergency, silver bullion can be used as a tool for barter and trade. If the economy goes under, silver could be the only thing standing between you and an empty belly.
