​Silver


​Silver is considered one of the noble metals along with gold and platinum.  Noble metals resist oxidation and corrosion in moist air.  Silver is slightly harder than gold. It is very ductile and malleable, exceeded in these properties by gold and palladium. Silver has played a role in human history for at least 6,000 years. During that time, much has been said and written about the precious metal—some true, some false and some just interesting to note. A favorite would be "every cloud has a silver lining".
