Silver as an Investment in Coimbatore

• Silver Coins – Silver coins can be purchased by weight, typically ranging from 1g to 10g or so. Silver coins offered by certain countries are considered as legal tender and can be used as currency. These coins are an excellent investment option as their value increases over time and they can offer the option of immediate liquidity when needed.

• Silver Bars – Large investors and industrialists prefer to invest in silver bars. These bars can weigh around 1 kg and are an excellent source for those who wish to invest in large quantities of silver. These bars can be molded into jewelry or could be used for manufacturing purposes. Melting them provides instant money and makes them an attractive option.

• Commodity Futures Exchange – Commodity future exchanges deal with large quantities of silver, generally weighing more than 1 kg a piece. Big buyers of silver can purchase it directly through commodity futures exchange.

• Jewelry and Silverware – Jewelry has been the preferred choice of investment among most households in Coimbatore. While investing in jewelry is considered a safe option what one fails to realize is they get less value for their money. Wastage and making charges drastically reduce the value of the item in case of both jewelry and silverware.
