Silver Rounds

Silver Rounds

Silver Rounds are classified in industry and the government as Bullion.  They can be minted by any private mint.  The opposite being a government minted coin has a denomination to it.  It also has a guarantee by that government to have a certain silver quality and quantity to it.  Verses a private minted silver round is not backed by a government mint, but their silver quality and quantity is just as good. It is illegal for a silver round to have a denomination on them.

The price of a silver round is almost all dependent upon the price of silver.  There are a multitude of different designs of silver rounds that are minted for any meaningful event, or place in history.

If a person wasn’t concerned about confiscation and wanted to buy silver bullion, there are two schools of thought.  One is to buy a mainstream government mint bullion coin that has the full government backing it.  This will trade higher than a silver round or a silver bar.  The other school of thought when purchasing bullion is buy the metal for the metal content and not the premium that comes with a government minted coin.  Your Landmark Capital representative can help you understand more in depth.
