I have some physical silver, I bought at $16.98, in I think 2014.
310 Troy ounces weighs 9.642kg and is worth about $10,300. You need a BIG safety box for this.
$10,300 in gold weighs about 3.07 Troy ounces or about 96 grams, which you can carry in a shirt pocket.
$100,000.00 in gold weighs 904 grams, and will fit in a small safety box.
Since I bought my metal, gold is up ~160% while silver is only up ~90%
