Buying silver

Silver buys the most metal for the money, and it moves further than gold in both directions. Because it is cheap by weight, storage matters sooner: 100 ounces of silver takes far more space than the same value in gold.

The choice is between coins, rounds and bars. Government coins such as the Silver Eagle and the Silver Maple Leaf carry the highest premium and the easiest resale, especially to private buyers. Rounds from private mints hold the same ounce of .999 silver for less. Bars of 10 ounces, a kilo or 100 ounces are the cheapest per ounce, and the larger the bar, the lower the premium and the less flexible the holding. Pre-1965 US dimes and quarters, sold by face value, are the easiest silver to sell in small amounts.

Silver tones and can spot over time. Both are cosmetic and do not change what the metal is worth.

Buying silver: the short guide

Why are silver premiums higher than gold?

Minting and shipping cost about the same per coin whatever the metal, but a silver ounce is worth far less, so the fixed costs are a bigger share of the price. Larger bars (10 oz, 100 oz) dilute that cost.

What is “90% silver”?

US dimes, quarters and half dollars made before 1965 were 90% silver. They trade by face value; $1 face holds about 0.715 troy oz of silver.

Rounds vs coins?

Rounds are made by private mints and are not legal tender. They hold the same silver as a coin at a lower premium, but resell at a smaller premium too.
