My friends mom blew a summer's allowance on silver back in the 60's, now its worth peanuts. But minerals are a natural resurce, and natural resources do get used up, and the laws of supply and demand say things that are in short supply are worth more. So when silver is rarer than a 60 year old (non-religous) virgin, it might be worth alot. That might take a while though.
it still has its sentimental value though..?
