There are very few people in the world for whom that is true. Silver and gold have had value for the majority of the planet for all of history.
In addition to their inherent beauty, they are used for both jewelry and technology. They have physical properties that are irreplaceable. Their value is based on chemistry, not on perception. Every person who uses a cell phone, the internet, watches TV, doesn't live on top of a mountain and eat snow, values silver, even if they don't know it.
