How to Buy Silver Online
Why Buy Silver Bullion?
Silver is the most popular precious metal to invest in, as the cost per ounce is dramatically lower than other metals. Buying silver online is a smarter, more reliable way to diversify your financial portfolio.
Additionally, investing in physical silver and gold are the only assets that are completely free of counterparty risk and have historically held their purchasing power.
Silver Bars
Silver bars are usually the best value in terms of a silver price per gram or per ounce basis. This allows you to accumulate many more ounces of silver for your investment dollars.
Silver bars are available as small as 1 gram to as large as 1000+ troy ounces for a COMEX good delivery bar.
Silver bars are almost exclusively produced by private mints, although both the Royal Canadian Mint, and the Perth Mint produce a limited selection. One of the reasons that silver bars cost less per ounce than coins or rounds is due to the lower fabrication costs of producing a bar. They typically do not feature the design work or the fine craftsmanship of most silver coins or rounds.
In addition, silver bars are available in much larger sizes than most coins or rounds, which helps lower the cost per ounce. Similar to gold bullion, silver bars often carry serial numbers, which can be useful if they are being held in a trust or in allocated, segregated storage.
Silver Rounds
Silver rounds are privately minted and could be considered to be very similar to silver bars when looked at as a bullion item.
The big difference between bars and rounds are that rounds feature original and thought-provoking messages. Private mints have a much greater margin in terms of the subject matter of their rounds and many are very creative with beautiful and interesting designs.
Silver Rounds
Silver coins are produced by government mints, carry a face value and can be used as legal tender.
Due to fabrication costs, they are more expensive per ounce than silver bars or rounds. However, they offer additional security and the peace of mind of having been produced by a government mint.
First-time investors often wish to start by buying silver coins due to the added confidence of buying a government minted item and then diversify into privately minted bars and rounds.
