Bullion Silver Art Bars

Almost all art bars have premiums that are reasonable in price, around the same as your average bullion coins. Yet others can carry a high premium over spot. When I buy art bars I’m buying them because I like them, and not with the stacking strategy of buying as close to spot as possible.

These days there is some great looking art silver on the market especially as technology advances like the use of 3d printers. What do you fellow stackers collect and think about art bars?

That Provident Prospector bar is one of my favorites.

Its a great little bar I they do rounds with the same design. Will pick some up one day.

First off, that's some mighty pretty shiny! IMO, while art bars are great to look at, they should only comprise a small portion of your stack. They are motivation to keep stacking and help you enjoy your silver, but carry the potential for losses (based on their higher premiums and smaller pool of potential buyers).

I totally agree they are more to look at and should always be purchased with this in mind. They will increase over the long term as older bars and rounds sell with quite high premiums. Certain pamp bars increase hugely in value. If its stacking silver I always go for the lowest price bullion around. Like you say its always good to have something nice in your collection.

Silverbugs bar is the coolest ever. I've got 60 different 1 oz art bars, I like to collect them and like you said most of them can be had close to spot. I get most at my local store

I agree the silverbugs in space is a great bar, the reflection in the astronauts helmet has amazing detail its so realistic. Wish I could pick them up in my local store. ))
