About the 5 oz silver bar
It offers a lower premium per ounce than single-ounce coins while staying compact, a convenient size for building a silver holding.
Silver bars are the most cost-effective way to buy silver, with a premium per ounce well below that of coins. Silver is bulky for its value, so plan your storage: a kilo bar is about the size of a thick paperback, and 100 ounces weighs over 3 kg.
Buying and paying
A 5 oz silver bar is priced live from the silver spot price plus a stated premium of 14%, in any of six currencies. At checkout your price is locked for 10 minutes while you confirm your order. You then pay by bank transfer (UK Faster Payments, SEPA or SWIFT), quoting your order number. Any VAT for your delivery country is shown before you order.
Frequently asked questions
How much silver is in a 5 oz bar?
Five troy ounces, which is 155.5 g of 999 fine silver.
5 oz bar or five 1 oz coins?
The bar usually costs less per ounce because bars are simpler to make. Five separate coins let you sell one at a time and are legal tender.
Why buy silver bars rather than coins?
Bars give you more silver for your money. Coins carry a higher premium for their design and legal-tender status.
Can I sell it back to you later?
Yes. We buy bars like this back at 97% of the live spot value of their fine metal content, with no fees. Request a quote on our Sell to us page, and we pay by bank transfer once we have received and checked the item.
