What is the silver spot price?
Silver trades in the same wholesale market as gold but behaves differently: it is a much smaller market with heavy industrial demand from solar, electronics and medicine, so it tends to fall further in recessions and rise faster in booms. The spot price shown here is the reference every dealer and refiner works from.
Because silver is cheap per ounce and costs nearly as much to fabricate as gold, retail premiums are a much larger share of the price — often 10–30% on one-ounce coins. The per-gram and purity tables below show what the metal itself is worth at spot; the dealer spread calculator models the premium.
Spot and per-unit prices come from Metals.dev, dealer bid and ask from Texas Precious Metals, and history from daily LBMA fixes back to 1968. Every figure is timestamped.

Silver price questions
What is the price of silver today?
The live spot price per troy ounce is at the top of this page with its change since the last LBMA fix and the time it was updated. It refreshes about once a minute during market hours.
How much is sterling silver worth per gram?
Sterling is 92.5% silver, so multiply the per-gram spot price (spot per troy ounce ÷ 31.1035) by 0.925. The purity table on this page shows the live figure alongside fine and coin silver.
What is the gold–silver ratio and why does it matter?
It is how many ounces of silver one ounce of gold buys — shown live on this page. Since 1968 it has averaged in the 50s–60s; readings above 80 have historically marked silver as cheap relative to gold.
Why are silver premiums so high?
Minting and distributing a one-ounce coin costs roughly the same whether it holds silver or gold, but silver is worth far less per ounce, so the fixed cost is a much bigger percentage of the price.
Which US coins are 90% silver?
Dimes, quarters and half dollars dated 1964 and earlier, plus Morgan and Peace dollars. The junk silver calculator values them by count or face value at the live price.
