Sell 5oz silver bars

About 5oz silver bars

A 5oz bar holds five troy ounces of fine silver, which is 155.52 grams. It's a popular size with people who stack silver, because it costs less to buy per ounce than lots of small bars but is still easy to sell on.

5oz bars turn up both as minted bars in assay cards and as thicker poured bars. Both are fine to sell.

How much is a 5oz silver bar worth?

A 5oz silver bar contains 155.52g of fine silver (5 troy ounces). Its value mainly comes from that silver and the silver price on the day, and our offer is based on the live price when we reply.

Some bars are worth more than their silver content, such as sealed bars from popular mints, older bars that are no longer made, and limited editions. Photos and the maker's name help us spot these.
