Four Nines, Not Three
Most silver bars stop at .999 fine. The Royal Canadian Mint takes this one to .9999, and that extra decimal is stamped right into the face. At 10 troy ounces, this size hits a middle ground stackers tend to prefer: enough weight to bring the premium down, small enough to sell a piece at a time. One extra nine, stamped into every bar.
A Roundel on One Face, a Field of Leaves on the Other
The front carries the Mint’s circular roundel, ROYAL CANADIAN MINT arcing above and MONNAIE ROYALE CANADIENNE beneath it in the Mint’s bilingual format, with 10 oz, 9999, and FINE SILVER struck below and a serial number pressed into a recessed panel near the base. The back is worked edge to edge in a repeating grid of the same maple leaf, struck across the full surface in a mix of matte and brighter finishes rather than one flat repeat. One face carries the roundel, the other carries the leaves.
The Serial Lives on the Bar Itself
This 10 oz silver bar ships in a protective plastic sleeve, with its serial number pressed directly into the metal rather than printed on a matched paper card the way some of RCM’s other bar formats work. The number is still the Mint’s own record of that individual bar. The number is struck in, part of the bar rather than a separate document.
Assayed to .9999, Backed by the Mint
Every bar weighs a full 10 troy ounces and assays at .9999 fine silver, a purity the Government of Canada stands behind. That fineness clears the IRS’s .995 minimum for a precious metals IRA with plenty of room to spare. Purity clears the IRA floor, well past what the rule requires.
Royal Canadian Mint 10 oz Silver Bar Specifications

Royal Canadian Mint 10 oz Silver Bar FAQ
Why is this bar .9999 fine instead of the usual .999?
The Royal Canadian Mint strikes its bars to a higher standard than most refiners bother with, and stamps the extra nine into the design itself. Four nines is standard, not an upgrade you pay extra for.
How can I confirm this bar is genuine?
Check the serial number pressed into the bar against your invoice or the mint’s own records. The number lives on the metal itself here, rather than on a matched paper document. Check the number, struck right into the bar.
Is the Royal Canadian Mint 10 oz Silver Bar IRA eligible?
Yes. At .9999 fine, it clears the IRS’s .995 minimum for a precious metals IRA by a wide margin. Eligibility isn’t a close call, given how far past the floor it sits.
What condition does it ship in?
New, straight from the Mint with no handling in between. Condition is new, not a numeric or third-party grade.
Does this bar ship with a matched paper card like some other RCM bars?
No. This 10 oz bar ships in a protective plastic sleeve, with its serial number struck directly into the metal instead of printed on a separate card. It’s struck in metal, not printed on paper.

Really beautiful 10oz bar it’s the second one I’ve ordered. I also like ordering from Hero Bullion but it seems shipping has slowed down recently. I usually receive my order 3 days after it ships but it took 8 days for this one to be delivered.

Hero is my new hero. These RCM 10 oz bars are amazing. Also enjoying the odd titanium and copper bars to start the grand kids stacking. They love them. My new hero!

I have several of these Beautiful Bars, most of which I purchased here. In my opinion, it now makes sense to take advantage of the current dip and obtain true value for your money paid. I believe that you cannot possibly go wrong by buying these now! PS I would love one of those Hero Bullion Polos you wear on your video…How can I get one

Made 2 orders of these RCM bars. First order was perfect, 2nd order of 11 bars had 3 with milk spots or toning. Hero said they would replace them but I had to pay return shipping. Figured I would cut my loss and just keep them. Beautiful bars in general but not real happy with the return policy.

I ordered the RCM 10 OUNCE silver bar last weekend. It is beautiful, I was very impressed how fast Hero Bullion was able to send it out. The price was by far the lowest and it arrived much faster than from any of the other Bullion dealers I had ordered from.

My favorite of all 10 oz bars. Beautiful / aesthetically pleasing. High grade silver for your portfolio. Ag is the thing so if it’s available grab some today. You will not be disappointed in your purchase nor in the product when you are admiring it in your hands.

Friendly customer service and very excited for this bar. It did however have a very noticeable scratch on the logo on the front that is disappointing. The bar itself is great, just would have wished there was no mark with this being my first 10 oz bar purchase.
