🪙 Gold Coins vs. Silver Coins: Which Investment Has Gained More Since 2020?
Gold and silver have both delivered impressive gains since 2020. But which precious metal has performed better?
The answer depends on how you measure success.
📊 The Numbers Tell an Interesting Story
Based on historical spot prices from January 2020 through October 2026:
🥇 Gold
January 2020: $1,520.55 per ounce
October 2026: $4,154.30 per ounce
Total Increase: 173%
🥈 Silver
January 2020: $18.01 per ounce
October 2026: $60.39 per ounce
Total Increase: 235%
Silver delivered the stronger percentage gain, while gold generated significantly more dollar appreciation per ounce.
Of course, silver also experienced substantial price swings. Higher returns and higher volatility frequently travel together. Apparently, nobody told silver to take the scenic route.
🔎 What Should Investors Consider?
Gold: Higher value per ounce, compact storage, and a long history as a store of wealth.
Silver: Lower entry cost, substantial industrial demand, and greater potential for price volatility.
Both metals offer tangible ownership, but actual investment returns also depend on purchase premiums, selling spreads, and storage costs.
