I'm new to precious metals "investing". To be clear I don't really see it as investing(yes, I read the old threads). I want to hold a small(about 1% or less) portion of my wealth in physical metals as a hedge against chaos.

Gold seems to be popularity-driven into a price premium to Platinum. For that reason I was considering buying platinum rather than gold as my play. Has anyone else done similar?

Crypto is a better hedge than gold

Because since the dawn of time, man has sought out gold.

In a shtf situation, people will still crave gold, albeit at a tremendous loss to your initial investment. Unless you plan to find the one kook building a catalytic converter for his horse drawn cart, you will have a tough time unloading your platinum.

Lead will outperform them both in terms of initial investment to returns even if you just stick some at 3000fps into a wild hog.

If I want to invest in silver without actually buying the physical silver what do I buy in my brokerage to do this?
