Historically, platinum has ranked slightly below gold and silver in terms of precious metals popularity. However, as market prices continue to grow, platinum has become a viable investment option whose price generally sits above silver, but below gold. Platinum may also be appealing for those who want to invest in gold, but find the price point a little too high.

History

It is believed that the earliest known use of platinum was on the Casket of Thebes, which was also decorated with silver and gold hieroglyphics. However, the first scientific report on platinum did not arrive until 1736 when mariner Antonio de Ulloa found the metal in Columbia. Today, platinum is available from most mints and precious metals dealers and has become a popular way for investors to diversify their portfolios.
