1 oz Silver Bar- Any Mint, Any Condition

One Troy Ounce, Mint Chosen by Us

The 1 oz Silver Bar, Any Mint, Any Condition is sold on the ounce and nothing else. You get one troy ounce of .999 fine silver in bar form, and we pick which refiner’s bar it is and what shape it is in. That trade is the whole listing.

Which Bars Come Through

Bars come from a rotating mix of refiners, so the one that ships depends on what we have when your order goes out. Three names you may see are Sunshine Minting, Asahi Refining and Golden State Mint. A Sunshine bar carries an eagle in front of a sunburst with SUNSHINE MINTING, .999 FINE SILVER and 1 OUNCE beneath it. An Asahi bar has its logo above ASAHI REFINING, with FINE SILVER 999 and 1 OUNCE TROY. A Golden State Mint bar has a mirror-like face with its name, an ISO 9001 insignia, and the weight and purity. Their reverses share a habit, each repeating the maker’s logo or name in a diagonal pattern, so the reverse is patterned.

Used, Not New

The Specifications tab lists the condition as used, and that is how to read the listing. A bar can show scratches, edge dings, fingerprints or the gray and gold toning silver picks up in storage. Mint, refiner and condition cannot be requested. None of it changes the metal, since the weight and fineness are stamped into the bar, and the marks are cosmetic.

1 oz Silver Bar Specifications

Each bar holds one troy ounce of .999 fine silver. Dimensions vary with the refiner, and the Specifications tab lists mint as various. Weight and fineness are fixed, and everything else about the bar depends on which mint made it. Full current specs are on the Specifications tab above.

1 oz Silver Bar FAQ

Can I choose the mint?

No. The bar you receive depends on what we have in stock, and mint, refiner and condition cannot be requested on this listing. No mint requests, which is what keeps this listing simple.

What condition should I expect?

Used. A bar may show scratches, edge dings, fingerprints or toning, or it may look nearly new. Cosmetic wear only, since the weight and fineness stamped on the bar do not change with the surface.

How big is the bar?

It depends on the mint. As one example, Golden State Mint’s 1 oz bar measures about 50 mm by 29 mm and roughly 2.4 mm thick. Sizes vary by refiner, so do not plan your storage around one exact size.

What is stamped on the bar?

Every bar carries its refiner’s name or logo, its weight and its fineness on the front. Look for 1 OUNCE and a fineness of .999 or 999. Weight and fineness are stamped, and they are what the listing sells.

When should I buy a named-mint bar instead?

If you want a particular hallmark or a cleaner surface, one of our single-brand 1 oz listings is the better fit. Those name the refiner up front and list the bar as new. Pick a named mint whenever the brand matters to you.
