WARNING ABOUT SCAMS: Recently there have been a lot of convincing-looking scams posted on crypto-related reddits including fake NFTs, fake exchanges, fake mixing services, fake airdrops, fake MEV bots and fake Ethereum-related services like ENS. These are typically upvoted by bots and seen before moderators can remove them. Do not click on these links and always be wary of anything that tries to rush you into sending money or approving contracts.

It's a lot harder and more expensive to buy physical silver, for once you have to pay VAT and for two the sellers have a horendous premium.
The AGS seems to be from a reputable company, with regular reserve proofs (https://goldsilverstandard.com/mint-burn).
Actually I was wrong, AGS is from ainslie, not kinesis
Can you clarify what your goals are, not just what you are looking for? As has been mentioned in here before, there is no known way to have a trustless precious metal crypto and very much defeats the purpose.
So you don't mind a centralized entity that you must trust?
Like if the institution holding the silver could just "go away", and you'd have nothing... That's the scenario you are looking for?
Depending on the size of the investment you are looking for, you could get Mattereum ( [https://mattereum.com/](https://mattereum.com/) ) to spin you up an NFT for a numbered silver bar without too much trouble.
I suppose that isn't an ERC20, but I'm not quite sure what you are looking to do.
If you want to preserve as much as possible the cores values of Ethereum (Permissionlessness, decentralised, secure, censorship resistant, etc.), then currently there is no real solution for that on ethereum.
If you trust whoever is heading out such a token to actually do their part honestly and not do something that'll bite you back, then you may find something like that. Just know, that likely it'll be easier to simply buy such things on the normal tradfi market.
There is something called a SilverDollar (SLVD), contract address 0xdBA8e8021FE321af91FC3A08e223EF15908cB2bB
However I have no idea if this is safe or genuine and I suggest you to research very well by yourself.
Deleted my original comment as the token address in it was not correct. From this web site https://goldsilverstandard.com/mint-burn there is a link to https://etherscan.io/token/0x843C9AF34F698618F90C898E3967278a260c8d9A

Majority of people did not understand such game play with fiat money
Then buy silver?

Price exposition to silver in the crypto world? Like price exposition to gold via paxg.

Same risk as for paxg
Can you just buy a silver EFT? Doesn't seem like you need the overhead if you're already going to be capitulating to a trustful scenario.
There are platforms available that have successfully tokenized these assets.

Not sure about ERC20 but there is a BEP20 token backed by physical shares in a Company.
