10 oz .999 Silver Grain/Shot

Silver shot is the rawest form of the metal you can buy: .999 fine silver poured into water and left to solidify into loose pellets, with no die work, no hallmark, and no packaging cost built into the price. That strips the premium down to refining and handling, which is why grain typically prices below rounds and small bars. This lot holds 10 troy ounces, sold by weight rather than by piece count.

Key Features:

• Purity and Weight: 10 troy ounces (311.03 grams) of .999 fine silver
• Metal Type: Investment-grade silver in granular cast form
• Format: Loose pellets in mixed sizes, no stamping or hallmark
• Packaging: Sealed poly bag, weighed to order

The shot itself is bright and reflective, with each pellet showing a mirrored, slightly dimpled surface from cooling in water. Shapes run irregular: some pieces are near-spherical, others flatten into teardrops, discs, and small lobed forms with tails where the molten silver pinched off mid-drop. Sizes vary within a single lot, ranging from grains barely larger than coarse sand up to pellets several millimeters across. Poured together they read as a bright, uneven mass rather than uniform beads, and that variation is inherent to the pour rather than a quality issue.

Shot arrives in a clear, sealed poly bag, weighed on a calibrated scale to the stated ounce count. Piece count, individual pellet size, and refiner are not specified and cannot be requested.

Two kinds of buyers use this product. Jewelers, casters, and silversmiths want grain because it melts fast and evenly, portions accurately by weight, and needs no cutting or preparation before the crucible. Stackers want it because the cost per ounce runs below almost anything else in the market. Silver in this form does tarnish over time like any .999 product, so a sealed bag and dry storage keep it bright.

The tradeoff is recognition. Grain has no hallmark, so most dealers will assay or test it before buying back, and resale is generally easier through a refiner than a coin shop. If you are buying for melt value or for the workbench, that is a fair trade. Order yours today and we will ship it insured in discreet packaging.
