Buy 1 oz (31.10 gram) Silver Bars – The Investment Standard in Bar Form
The 1 oz silver bar contains 31.1035 grams of 999/1,000 fine silver – the exact troy ounce used as the international trading benchmark for silver – and with 5 products at CelticGold offers the widest manufacturer selection of any small silver bar format. Available from Nadir, Heraeus, Heimerle + Meule, PAMP and the Perth Mint, each 1 oz bar represents the minimum weight at which meaningful manufacturer and quality differentiation becomes practical.
Pre-Owned option: A pre-owned 1oz silver bar is also listed – a cost-effective option for investors who prioritise silver content over pristine presentation. Same fine weight, lower price.
1 oz silver bar or 1 oz silver coin – which is better?
Silver coins at 1 oz are sold under the margin scheme in Germany, which typically results in a lower total purchase price than a standard VAT bar. Silver bars at 1 oz carry 19% VAT but often have lower buyback spreads with institutional buyers. For most private investors, 1 oz silver coins under the margin scheme offer the better value.
Does manufacturer matter for 1 oz silver bars?
For investment purposes, any LBMA-accredited bar (Nadir, Heraeus, Perth Mint, PAMP) will be accepted by all reputable dealers at full silver spot. Heimerle + Meule bars are well known in DACH markets. The Perth Mint bar carries the additional WA Government guarantee.
