Answer 2

this brings me back to my past life on the Planet Terconium. The Overlord had bid me a Holy Mission, and requested that I collect all of the world's nuggets. One of these was of course the gold nugget. So once I was reincarnated into the Voodoo Woman Tituba's womb, I controled her mind with my own unique theton levels and made her do a funky celtic jig. Then she went to Nevada to make it big in Vegas. But she lost all of her money on a game of chance and had to squander the wilderness for gold to pay off her debt. All she found was silver, but it still made her big cash money.

All I know is there is silver. The great comstock lode, the area around Virginia City and Carson City. There must be some left. The silver went to the Carson City mint and was made into coins.
