This is why Everybody should Own a Kilo Bar of Silver!!!

#silver #gold #preciousmetals
Are kilo bars of silver any good? I think they are amazing and everybody should own a 1 kilo bar of silver. They are very good sizes for storage of your silver and portability of your wealth. They are however beholden to the value of spot price. But, you can enjoy them and hold your silver and hold your wealth in your hands and appreciate how amazing and dense silver really is!

You can also melt the bars into 1 oz silver coins, as you get older, and feel the need to use them. I would also highly recommend buying Gold for long term savings (for example to finance your house or something similar) and silver also for long term, but also emergencies. For example, in the case of the dollar loosing its value completely, to buy food and other nessecary goods with it directly from farmers.

[@elitefitness341]

I know it's weird, but I'm the same way. 1,2,4,5,10,100 oz bars are my favorite simply because it's an exact amount of ounces and I can quickly look at prices per ounce and know what I have. I mean, if I got a great deal on an odd weight, I'm not dumb, I would buy it.

[@MrRoundwound]

[@tiges6989]

[@eventhisidistaken]

Silver is extremely liquid. Even the 1000 ounce bars are trivially easy to sell, and the spreads are less, the larger the size. The disadvantage of larger sizes is simply that they are physically large and heavy. You can fit 1000,1 ounce bars in a short safe deposit box that will not fit a 1000 ounce bar, because it's too tall. On the other hand, it's much easier to pick up 1 object than 1000 objects. Also, 1000 troy ounces is ~68 pounds. A lot of people just can't lift that, sadly.

I've tried the 1oz coins, 10oz bars, 1kg bars, and 5kg bars. The 5kg bar is hilariously heavy but very impractical. 1k is a nice weight and good feel. That feeling you get when you hold one is hard to describe. The coins, yeah they're probably more useful for day to day stuff if we ever get to that point but i'm not as big a fan of them. I have taken a liking to the 10oz bars though. They are a great mix of practicality and that feeling you get when you hold them.

[@jamesm1]

It's always fascinating to me how the human brain perceives volume based on shape. Even at the 5oz bar size there's tons of variety, some of which people would probably swear are under or over 5oz at first glance. Those bars also might have less than a gram of impurities. From what I understand, a lot of .999 silver may actually be higher purity than marked to a degree, its just most mints can't guarantee they will be so they settle for a blanket .999 label that can be met 100% of the time. Would be an interesting experiment to see the exact differences with a Sigma machine!

[@BackyardBullion]

Yeah totally - most silver bars have a assay rating of about 9997 silver so its very little impurities in the grand scheme of things. Thanks for stopping by!

I buy 5oz, 10oz, and kilos, and its good to have silver rounds too. After you buy enough of the little stuff in case of you have barter later, then you can concentrate on the bigger bars for long term savings. This all depends on you financial needs. Watch your gold to silver ratio in case you have too much silver, convert to gold for better storage and easier to travel with.

[@Mary-J]

Glad to find this video even a year after the fact. I'm debating between a Kilo (beautiful and nice weight) and even numbered bars because when it comes to reselling, I do wonder if 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 ounces are just easier to sell down the road. Good informative video. 👍🏼

[@jayduffy7615]

Hi Mary J, I have wondered the same thing in the past. What I have decided to do is to diversify by buying silver in different weights and shapes. I have a solid kilo bar but I also have kilos of silver in "silver slivers" (shavings) and in "silver shot" (BBs). If I am ever in a position to sell my silver, then the silver slivers or shot will be much more divisible so as to more accurately pay for something or to find a buyer for. Not everyone will be able to afford the Kilo bar.

[@Mary-J]

@@jayduffy7615 Great advice! What I've done is exactly what you said, diversify. In the long run, smaller amounts are easier to sell for those of us without immediate connections to dealers/buyers. I love the idea of the Kilo, 100, and 1,000 oz. as both a cool looking bar and a way to get more bang for your buck.

It depends. Kilo bars are for the really rich people. For the average joe 1 troy ounce coins or bars are a much better investment/choice. When the system collapses it's better to have 33x1 troy ounce bar than a 1 kilobar. As medium of exchange small units are recommended.

Decided to buy my first silver when I heard about the GameStop debacle. Investors were starting to turn to precious metals and all of a sudden, all the sites were selling out of anything made of fine silver. I decided to buy what I could afford from the available stock. Settled on a 1kg silver bar and even then, the product is delayed because of the volume of requests. looking back on the price of silver; one can plainly see that while there are dips, silver has never stopped growing in value throughout history. It's just a matter of holding on to it long enough(10-20 years) or possibly finding a rare opportunity to make a short term profit by flipping metal. Anyway, I have definitely started to pay attention to the price of precious metals...

I like the idea of bars, they feel like wealth. My perspective is this. Why do you want it? Is it as an investment? Probably not, but if so, then the most popular is what you want - 1 to 10 ounce rounds and bars. Is it as a store of wealth? Maybe, or maybe as an insurance policy. As a store of wealth, larger bars probably make more sense. But if the purpose is for SHTF insurance, then a combination of larger and smaller makes sense. You would want smaller for smaller transactions, and larger for the store of wealth aspect.

Hi there, I really like the idea of getting into precious metals. It feels like a stable way of holding some asset. I know this will sound niave but I shall ask anyway. Where can I purchase silver at a competitive rate here in the UK? Regards all.

[@BackyardBullion]

www.thesilverforum.com is probably your best bet

[@donarmando916]

Bars are only better if you believe industrial demand will be the main driver of Silver prices going forward. If you believe investment demand will be the driver, bullions are preferable because they are more in demand and easier to sell. If you believe that you might need Silver to buy stuff during a currency crisis, 1oz bullion is also preferable.

A week ago i saw a new 1 kilo coinbar from StoneX on a site and it was love at first sight! I already ordered it, can't wait for it to arrive ...

[@gypsonny2]

I am predicting that 10 years from now silver will pass gold in value.

[@marekdzurak1867]

i dont know gold is just so beautifull to look at ...and dont forgot about using gold in products too there are some ways where nanogold can change way we live forever we dont use it now cos is quite expenccive

I started out on 1 ozt bars and then 5, and now 10 ozt. I also started with 100 dollar budgets and now I go for the lowest possible cost-per-ounce. I have plenty of Silver dimes, quarters, halve and dollars, rounds and Maples/Britannia'really

[@mrsebrub]

I agree but my preference is 100 oz. Bars...

[@ThePeterDislikeShow]

I would have noticed the door stop. I LOVE 1,000 ounce bars, mostly because of how hated they are and the low premiums. They do require paperwork, but when the time comes to sell you can cut it up.

[@ThePeterDislikeShow]

@kevin mulligan Selling 1,000 ounces of silver at once requires a tax form.

Germania Mint is on fire right now in my opinion, they have a awesome bars.

I've been looking to acquire physical silver as of late, as I foresee the price skyrocketing in the next few months. I own a lot of shares of "SLV," an ETF fund, but that price isn't necessarily directly correlated to silver. However, I've noticed something: The mark-up on Silver bars is INSANE unless you're SPECIFICALLY buying 1 KG silver bars. Sellers of these bars (as depicted in this video) only "mark up" their silver by 3-6%, but, on the other silver-bars mark-up is at LEAST 12.5%.

[@GeorgE-yo5yc]

Then again, if like you say, the price skyrockets and goes, say, 100% - 800%, the 12,5% premium will be irrelevant,

[@mycommentpwnz]

@@davidarmstrong7628 Why? Dollar is struggling. The BRIC nations are acquiring vast sums of silver & gold. When inflation retreats, Gold and Silver skyrocket. There are about a million reasons to own SLV right now. Or, are you scared the institutions who developed and maintain these ETF's are going to go BK?

[@mycommentpwnz]

@@davidarmstrong7628 Yeah, when crime syndicates become synonymous with financial institutions, it's risky to buy any ETF, let alone just silver. Endless spoofing. Endless manipulation. Etc.

my favorites... gold and silver kilo bars!

[@BackyardBullion]

Glad to hear it!

[@chrissummerfield9583]

They do look great they have the WOW factor about them . Great video again byb.

[@BackyardBullion]

Yes they do!

[@robertkaokengnye8925]

Yes, you are right to buy 1 kg silver bar to keep, as you usually pay a much lower premium above the spot price rather than buying 1 oz of silver coin. Remember you may have to add 7% of value added tax or GST (goods servive tax) in certain countries on top of the above the total price. Advisable to buy when price of the silver dips.

Wish I had picked up a couple kilos a couple months ago when they were going for 660$ ish

My first silver purchase in 2015 was a geiger kilo bar. I own 6 of them now and a lot of geiger 10 ounce bars and half kilo bars. I really fell in love with geiger and never looked back. I am a little ocd too so a mish mosh of random bars don't work for me

[@BackyardBullion]

The geigers are stunning for sure

[@andyu5596]

@@BackyardBullion I have about 50 of the 10 ounce geigers I felt that was the best bang for the buck and not locked into too big of bars when the price goes way up which I expect
