Investing in silver comes in various forms: silver bars, silver coins and certificates.  These formats are the most recognized investment tools in which investors exchange their money. And the reason why it is so popular is because of the accessibility.

Silver bars and coins can be purchased directly from banks and online dealers giving investors all the needed leverage to save their wealth through an extremely liquid and stable medium.

Silver certificates, on the other hand, present investors a new option when keeping their investment. In this article, we will be discussing these options as a way for investors to save their wealth and show what each format is.

Silver bullion is a format that can be easily bought from a bank or an online silver dealer. The advantages you get when putting your money in silver bars is being able to physically hold your investment inside your safe at home. This gives the investor complete control on where the investment is stored.

So, most will not have to bother with paying or maintaining an account elsewhere just to secure the silver. Just by purchasing a home safe and placing it inside the silver investment can literally just stay at home until it is time to cash it in.

Silver bars can be bought in several sizes depending on what the investor’s needs are. From 5,000 ounce contracts or 1,000 ounce troy bars that weigh in at 68 pounds, or 100 ounce bars at 6.8 pounds, or even 1 ounce bars that weigh in at just 31.1 grams. There are sizes and weights for every need.

Another popular format is silver coins. Throughout ancient history, silver has been used as a monetary currency to increase wealth and pay for goods and services. Silver coins are still used to hold wealth. Several countries issue annual silver coins which are more expensive and have a higher value rating compared to others. And similar to silver bars, these silver coins also come in different sizes.

Silver offers so much versatility in investing options. For those investors that desire to purchase silver but without holding or keeping it physically then silver certificates are another option. Since not all investors are keen on storing their investments at home, they would much rather buy a silver certificate that allows them to buy and sell silver without the usual problems of safe keeping.

Another option is to have a third-party store the physical bullion you own.  An excellent firm for this service is GoldMoney.

Of course, you can also try to invest in silver mining companies. It is similar to investing in the stock market where you wait for a company’s stock to appreciate and sell it when the value is right. But this kind of investing must be backed-up up with a thorough analysis of a company’s fundamentals and future performance for better profits.

Investing and saving in silver does present a wide range of options for the investor to maintain their wealth. Now, it all depends on the portfolio strategy that fits your projected investment growth.
