VAT Free 1 oz Silver Coins
The standard size for silver and gold coins is 1oz. The metric weight of 1oz for silver coins is 31.103 g of fine silver. "Oz" is the international unit symbol for ounces. An "ounce" (from Latin, Unica) means "one twelfth". In the field of precious metals, the term "troy ounce" is used. The troy ounce (oz) indicates the amount of fine silver in a silver coin.
The total weight of a silver coin also includes other alloying ingredients, such as copper. Due to the high fine content of silver coins, which is generally 999/1000 or 999.9/1000, the alloying parts are (almost) non-existent.

Value and Price 1oz Silver Coins
The value of the different 1oz silver coins depends on the current silver price, the VAT and the surcharge, which is also known as the premium. As a rule of thumb investors should be aware that there is a price difference in the purchase and sale of silver called the buy/sell spread.
Silver Price
Silver is freely traded on the world's stock exchanges. The price is subject to supply and demand and other factors such as option trading. Therefore, the price of silver is constantly changing. For this reason, precious metals dealers adjust the price of their silver products, according to the silver price movement in regular intervals as short as 60 seconds.
VAT
There are two special value-added tax arrangements for silver coins in Europe. In Germany, there is so-called margin scheme, which means that the coin is offered without VAT. The total price, however, includes a 7% import tax, as well as 19% VAT on the merchant's margin.
European silver buyers should familiarize themselves with VAT rates in your particular country before buying.
Silver Coins can be bought VAT free from our branch in Estonia. To learn more about buying VAT free silver from CelticGold click on the link below.
