Buy Silver Bars
Silver bars offer a lower premium than silver coins and are more popular with investors. Generally speaking, the larger the bar the lower the premium will be. This is because it is less expensive to produce a 100oz silver bar than it is to produce 100 1oz bars. Many investors purchasing large quantities of silver will acquire the 100oz silver bars as they offer the lowest costs.
However, investors also enjoy the liquidity that smaller silver bars offer since they can be bought and sold in as little as 1oz increments. This is what makes 1oz and 10oz silver bars popular with new investors and as gifts. Some investors purchase only one type of bar while others enjoy the variety of silver bar sizes available.
Why Own Silver Bars
For 6,000 years silver has held a special role as a store of value for investors and collectors in many cultures and walks of life. Silver also has many industrial uses and is often regarded by investors as a monetary metal. Silver has been called the people’s gold as it is a precious metal yet less expensive to acquire. While silver is a monetary metal like gold it used in countless industries including solar, medical, electrical, digital, and jewelry. Silver is considered an insurance policy again inflation, currency devaluations, stock market risks, as well as geo-political unrest.
Many analysts suggest that the silver to gold ratio is historically large and that a reversion to the historic norm of 16/1 suggests that silver is immensely undervalued. Other factors such as weakening mine supply and growing industry and investment demand also suggest that silver’s current price levels is very much undervalued.
Since silver is a store of value that can be held outside the banking system investors are increasingly turning to silver as a means of wealth protection.
