The Monts de Piedad are making a comeback thanks to gold prices, prompting savers to acquire bullion as a way to safeguard their savings. At the same time, others are pawning jewellery to obtain liquidity. A group of people are waiting their turn in the main office of the Mont de Piedad in Madrid to pawn inherited jewellery, sometimes to buy a phone or take a trip.
The Monts de Piedad come back to life with the peaks of gold and the revaluation of jewellery.
