5 oz Silver Bar - Secondary Market

When investing in precious metals, larger sizes, like a 5 oz silver bar, often have a lower premium per ounce than buying smaller bars and rounds.

These are secondary market bars that dealers have purchased back so they can be sold at a lower cost. They will likely show some evidence of prior handling, such as light scratches and tarnish.

Each 5 oz silver bar is relatively small and easy to store at home. Various private mints and refineries produce them and will include the mint's logo, weight, silver purity, and sometimes a unique serial number.

Some dealers may also include minted generic silver bars depending on available inventory. These will be generic, private mint silver bars that are typically offered as the dealer's choice, which means the bar you receive will vary based on available inventory at the time of order.

When considering investment options, each 5 oz silver bar from a specific manufacturer often has a uniform shape and size, making them easy to stack in a safe or drawer.
