Precious metals in Afghanistan are strongly associated with traditional jewelry and the preservation of family wealth. Gold is by far the dominant precious metal and is widely preferred for savings and personal ownership. Silver is commonly used in traditional crafts and jewelry but carries lower investment appeal. Platinum and palladium products are rarely encountered in the local retail market and remain unfamiliar to most consumers.
