Why buy silver?
Silver represents an excellent investment opportunity for several reasons. First, it remains affordable, making it a valuable metal accessible to a wide range of investors.
Unlike gold, whose cost can discourage smaller budgets, silver allows you to start in precious metals with a lower investment while maintaining good profitability prospects.
Investing in money is a safe way to diversify your wealth. By integrating this metal into your portfolio, you reduce the risks associated with fluctuations in traditional financial markets. Money acts as a safe haven, particularly in times of economic or geopolitical instability. It effectively protects capital against inflation and currency crises.
Some silver coins are highly sought after by both investors and collectors. The most popular include the Silver Eagle from the US and the Maple Leaf from Canada, renowned for their purity and international recognition.
In Europe, pieces such as the 1 oz Philharmonic or the 50 French Hercule francs are distinguished by their high demand. These coins combine historical value, aesthetics and investment quality. Collectors and investors appreciate their quick liquidity, as they are easily resold in local and international markets.
Finally, physical money is a tangible asset. Unlike intangible or digital investments, it can be stored and held directly by its owner. Whether in the form of coins or bullion, silver offers reassuring physical security, in addition to its intrinsic value.

Is it better to buy silver coins or bars?
The choice between silver coins and bullion depends mainly on your investment goals, budget and personal preferences. Both options have advantages and disadvantages that need to be understood before you start.
Silver coins are particularly appreciated for their flexibility and accessibility. They are ideal for first-time investors or those who wish to diversify their portfolio with small amounts of money. Their main advantage is that they are exempt from VAT on the basis of their face value. This makes them more attractive from a tax point of view compared to standard bars.
In addition, coins such as the 50 Francs Hercule, the 5 Francs Semeuse, the krugerrand with its gold pendant or the Britannia 1 ounce offer an excellent value for money. These are the most famous silver coins in the world.
They are also very liquid, which facilitates their resale when needed. However, their cost per gram is slightly higher than that of ingots because of the premium linked to their manufacture and aesthetics.
Silver bars are more suitable for investors looking to acquire large quantities of metal at a lower cost per gram. They are perfect for a long-term wealth strategy.
However, one point to consider is that they are subject to a 20% VAT, which increases their initial cost. That said, our house offers an exclusive solution to overcome this disadvantage: Fiji Silver bars.
These bullion have an engraved face value, which allows them to be exempt from VAT. They combine the tax advantages of coins and the practicality of bullion for optimal storage.
If you prefer flexibility, silver coins are ideal. If you are looking for cost optimization for large quantities, ingots are the preferred choice. In any case, we offer a range of products that meet your needs and objectives, with impeccable quality and safety.
Investing in silver offers much more than a simple purchase. It is a strategic choice to protect and value your wealth in the long term. With its affordable price, money is accessible to all investors, whether they are novice or seasoned.
In times of economic uncertainty, it stands out as a reliable safe haven that can protect your capital. By choosing certified and suitable products, such as VAT-exempt coins or innovative bullion, you optimize your investment.
