Collectible & Gifts Silver

(12 products)

Collectible silver coins and bars have long been favoured by both investors and collectors for their unique blend of intrinsic value and artistic craftsmanship.

Unlike regular silver bullion, collectible silver often comes in the form of commemorative coins, limited-edition releases, or proof coins. These items are sought after not only for their precious metal content but also for their numismatic appeal, meaning their value as collectibles due to rarity, historical significance, or artistic design.

From the iconic Lunar Series and Kookaburra coins to special edition Marvel and historical commemoratives, collectible silver can be used to diversify portfolios or enhance precious metal collections.

Why Invest in Collectible Silver?

Investing in collectible silver offers several benefits that go beyond simple precious metal ownership.

Numismatic value: One of the key factors is the numismatic value, which is the additional worth a coin or bar holds due to its rarity, design, or historical significance. Collectible silver can appreciate based on demand within the collector community, making it a potentially profitable long-term investment.

Rarity: Rarity is another factor that can drive up the value of collectible silver. Limited mintage coins, especially those from well-known mints, often become harder to find as time passes, making them more valuable to collectors. This scarcity can result in significant price appreciation over time, especially for coins that commemorate major events or feature beloved themes, such as the Kookaburra coins from the Perth Mint.

Retained value: Collectible silver often retains its value or even increases during economic downturns, providing a hedge against inflation and currency devaluation. This makes collectible silver a highly attractive asset.

How to store and protect your collectible silver

Proper care and storage are essential to maintaining the value and appearance of your collectible silver. Here are some tips to ensure your pieces remain in pristine condition:

  • Use protective covers: Most collectible silver coins come in plastic capsules to protect them from environmental damage. Keep the coins in these capsules to avoid scratches, tarnishing, or other damage.
  • Avoid direct handling: Handling collectible silver with your bare hands can leave oils and dirt that may degrade the quality of the coin over time. Use gloves when touching your coins or bars.
  • Store in a controlled environment: Humidity and extreme temperature fluctuations can harm silver. Store your collectible silver in a dry, temperature-controlled environment, such as a safe or a specialised vault designed for precious metals.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the difference between bullion and collectible silver coins?
Bullion silver coins are valued primarily for their precious metal content and are typically mass-produced. Collectible silver coins, on the other hand, have additional numismatic value due to their rarity, design, and historical or commemorative significance.

Do collectible silver coins increase in value over time?
Yes, many collectible silver coins can increase in value over time due to their limited mintage, rarity, and demand within the collector community. The appreciation is often driven by numismatic factors rather than just the price of silver.

Are collectible silver coins considered legal tender?
Yes, many collectible silver coins are legal tender, meaning they have a face value and can be used as currency.

How can I verify the authenticity of collectible silver coins?

To verify the authenticity of collectible silver coins, you can check for hallmarks or mint marks that indicate the coin’s origin, purity, and mint of issue. Additionally, you can use methods like weight and dimension comparison, or seek third-party grading services that certify the coin's authenticity and condition.
