A traditional way of investing in silver is by buying actual bullion bars. In some countries, like Switzerland and Liechtenstein, bullion bars can be bought or sold over the counter at major banks. The flat, rectangular shape of silver bars makes them ideal for storage in a home safe, a safe deposit box at a bank.
Various sizes of silver bars:
- 1000 oz troy bars – These bars weigh about 68 pounds avoirdupois (31 kg) and vary about 10% as to weight, as bars range from 900 ozt to about 1,100 ozt (28 to 34 kg). These are COMEX and LBMA good delivery bars.
- 100 oz troy bars – These bars weigh 6.8 pounds (3.11 kg) and are among the most popular with retail investors. Popular brands are Engelhard and Johnson Matthey.
- Odd weight retail bars – These bars cost less and generally have a wider spread, due to the extra work it takes to calculate their value and the extra risk due to the lack of a brand name.
- 1 kilogram bars (32.15 oz troy)
- 10 oz troy bars and 1 oz troy bars (311 and 31.1 g)
We most often deal in 1-100 troy oz bars. Due to the difficulty in trading them; 1,000 oz bars are very, very rare to come by.
