Bullion refers to precious metals like gold and silver in their purest form, typically shaped into bars or coins. It is valued by weight and purity rather than face value. Investors and collectors buy bullion as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty.

Silver bullion is investment-grade silver, typically in the form of bars or coins with a high level of purity, often .999 or higher. It is widely used for wealth preservation and portfolio diversification. Investors favor silver bullion for its affordability and industrial demand.

Gold bullion comes in various weights, but the standard gold bar, also known as a "Good Delivery" bar, weighs approximately 400 troy ounces (about 12.4 kg). Smaller bars, like 1 oz or 10 oz, are also popular among investors.

The price of a gold bullion bar depends on its weight, gold's current market price (spot price), and premiums from dealers. A standard 1 oz gold bar typically costs slightly above the spot price, while larger bars may offer lower premiums per ounce.

To sell gold bullion bars, you can approach reputable bullion dealers, online marketplaces, or local coin shops. Ensure you verify the current gold price, compare offers, and check buyer reviews for a secure transaction. Some dealers offer buyback programs for added convenience.

A bullion coin is often a government-minted coin made of precious metals like gold or silver, primarily for investment rather than circulation. Unlike numismatic coins, their value is based on metal content rather than rarity. Popular examples include the American Gold Eagle and Canadian Maple Leaf.

Precious metals are rare, naturally occurring metals with high economic value, including gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. They are used in jewelry, industry, and investment as a hedge against inflation and market volatility.
