Characteristics of silver coins
The difference between buying silver coins as opposed to when you buy silver bars is that many silver coins also represent a face value. As a result, such coins are considered legal tender in their country of origin. However, the chances are pretty slim that anyone would actually consider spending their silver coins on groceries or other expenses. This is because the intrinsic silver value will almost always surpass the nominal value. For this reason, silver coins are bought by many as a tangible investment in valuable precious metal. Moreover, in various countries including the Netherlands, you do not pay VAT over your silver coin purchases. This often makes choosing silver coins a cheaper option than buying silver bars.
The 4 advantages of buying silver coins
Silver coins offer you an excellent opportunity to convert your money into a rare precious metal. As a buyer, you have a number of important advantages:
- Buy silver in a handy size and weight
- Opt for easily tradable silver investment coins
- Silver coins can be purchased in the Netherlands without VAT
- Your silver coins grow in value when the silver price increases
Buy silver coins in all weights
The standard weight for silver coins is known as a troy ounce, which is a weight equal to 31.1 grams and usually noted as “Oz”. Of course it is also possible to buy larger investment coins, for example silver coins with a weight of 10 troy ounces or 1 kilo. The weight is always an expression of the pure silver content. In addition, the year of production and country of origin are also stated on the coin. Some silver coin series are issued with a new design each year, which makes these coins very popular among collectors.
