Buy Silver Bars

Silver bars come in an assortment of weights. Each weight has a unique appeal to different investors and for various reasons. The silver bar weights include:

1 oz Silver Bars
Investing and holding on to several 1-ounce silver bars allows silver investors to sell part of their holdings while maintaining ownership of the rest until another opportunity is present.

5 oz Silver Bars
5 oz silver bars offer a lower premium than 1 oz bars but are still smaller than 10 oz. These bars are common among beginner investors due to their affordability and portability.

10 oz Silver Bars
10 oz bars are what investors use as a comparable option to silver rounds. These bars are usually sealed individually in plastic and come in five or ten sheets.

1 Kilo Silver Bars
Kilo bars weigh in at 32.151 ounces. These are a great option as a step up from the 10 oz bars while not potentially maxing out your finances on a 100 oz silver bar.

100 oz Bars
These are excellent options for investors who want to maximize their silver investing. They offer low premiums and are highly recommended for precious metals IRA investments.

Here are a few key details to keep an eye out for to avoid counterfeit bars and to make the safest purchase possible when investing in silver bars. 

• Avoid off-weight bars. These bars are poorly manufactured and stamped with the first weight on the scale. They are inaccurate and won’t sell for as much as their purchase price upon resale.
• 10 oz silver bars and under will be wrapped in plastic from the manufacturer. It’s essential to leave the wrapping on to prevent possible tarnishing. Blemished silver bars also lose resale value. 
• Make sure to know the brand’s value and not only the weight of the average silver bar. The same-weight silver bar may cost differently for various sellers due to their reputation. 
• The best silver bar is the one that fits you and your needs. While 10 and 100 oz bars are most common for veteran investors, 1 and 5 oz silver bars are highly sought out by entry-level investors looking to buy and sell quickly.
• Always buy your silver bars from a trusted and accredited vendor.

Silver coins and rounds are popular among collectors because of their beautifully crafted designs. Limited edition and rare coins come with certificates of authenticity, making them highly sought after. Coins tend to be more expensive than bars because of their numismatic value.

Coins differ from rounds in that they hold monetary value, each assigned with a face value and denomination. Rounds are produced by private manufacturers removing any legal tenure ability. Rounds are the middle-man between silver coins and bars. They look like coins but lack legal tenure value.

Bars are created with investors in mind. They have simple designs but add significant value to your investment portfolio.

Because not all silver bars weigh the same, they’re priced differently. Heavier bars will be more valuable than their lighter counterparts. There is a caveat, not all bars that weigh the same are priced the same.

The price is influenced is the bar’s design, the technique used by the mint to create the bar, the purity of the bar, and several other factors.

The overall price of silver bars is influenced by the market and is referred to as the spot price. A silver bar’s spot price is determined by political and financial events around the world.
