Silver has a certain mystic element according to some, who say that the silver reflective metal while appearing pure and white also has associations with the moon and lunar elements. For example vampires are said to fear silver, probably an association with the purity conceived in European folklore about the metal, even werewolf's are supposedly only slayable with silver weapons. Needless to say Silver collectables and antiques are a fine collection to pursue, with elegance, purity and value.
