How has the silver price moved this month?
Loading the 30-day silver chart from the live market feed…
The chart draws itself from the same live feed as the numbers above, so it can never show a stale month. Day-to-day moves are normal; what matters when you sell is the live number at the top and a buyer who pays on it.
What does the spot price mean when you sell silver?
Spot is the worldwide trading price for one troy ounce of fine silver, refreshed continuously while markets are open. It is the reference every honest buyer starts from: your item's weight, times its tested purity, times this price, minus the buyer's stated margin.
What separates buyers is whether that arithmetic happens where you can see it. At our counters the scale faces you, purity is XRF-tested in front of you, and the offer is built from the same live feed showing on this page. Collector coins are checked for value above their metal before any melt offer is made.
Estimate before you drive: the silver calculator works by weight, and the coin melt calculator prices 90% dimes, quarters, halves and dollars per coin, both against this same live price.

What is the cost of silver today?
The live spot price at the top of this page is today's cost of silver per troy ounce, updating through the trading day from a live market feed. Divide by 31.1035 for the per-gram price of fine silver.
Why do silver price sites show slightly different numbers?
Spot moves continuously and every site refreshes on its own schedule, so two honest pages can differ by seconds of market movement. A big gap usually means one page is stale. This page pulls from a live feed and stamps the time it last updated.
Is the silver spot price what I get paid?
Spot is the reference, not the offer. Every real buyer pays below spot by a margin that covers refining and the business; what matters is seeing the weight, the purity test, and the margin stated plainly. Collector value is checked first, because a coin worth more than its metal should never be paid as metal.
What is the silver share price, and is it the same as spot?
People searching a silver share price usually mean either the spot price on this page or the price of a silver ETF share, which tracks spot minus fund fees. If you hold physical silver, spot is your number; ETF share prices only matter for brokerage accounts.
When is the best time to sell silver?
Nobody can time the market for you, and waiting for a peak usually costs more in uncertainty than it earns. What you control is selling to a buyer who prices from the live number, shows the math, and pays the same day, so the price you see is the price basis you actually get.
