Spot Price of Silver

SPOT PRICE OF SILVER⇒

The Silver Price, is usually referred to as the Spot Price. The spot price of silver is updated minute by minute and can fluctuate quite rapidly depending on current market conditions. When buying and selling silver by the ounce, it is industry standard to measure it in Troy Ounces which is about 1.10 regular or Avoirdupois ounces. There are 31.1 grams in a troy ounce, and 12 troy ounces in a troy pound.  Silver is also sold in grains, grams, kilos, etc… but when referring to the current spot price of silver on charts and graphs, it is almost always priced by the troy ounce. It is important to know that when buying silver in round, coin, or bar form that there is an additional fee added onto the spot price called the Premium.

When buying silver in today’s market, sellers will take the current spot price of silver and add the premium to cover the minting fees and other costs. The goal of the buyer is to buy the highest quality silver, at the best possible price. From 2002 to 2011, the spot price of silver increased by 400% and still has room for investment growth (see chart to the right).
