About this product
The 500g Royal Mint cast silver bar sits comfortably in the middle ground between smaller retail bars and full kilogram formats. It offers a meaningful amount of physical silver without the jump in outlay that comes with larger bars. Cast rather than minted, each bar has a practical, workmanlike finish that appeals to investors who value metal weight over presentation.
Produced by The Royal Mint, these bars contain 500 grams of 999 fine silver and are supplied brand new. As newly struck bullion, they are subject to VAT at the standard UK rate.

Product Description
This 500g cast silver bar is manufactured using traditional casting methods, giving each bar subtle surface variations that confirm its authenticity and production process. Unlike minted bars, which are struck to a uniform finish, cast bars prioritise substance and durability, which many investors prefer for long term holding.
Each bar is clearly stamped with The Royal Mint logo, its weight, fineness, and a unique serial number for traceability. The bars are supplied vacuum sealed, helping to protect the surface during storage and handling. While the appearance is intentionally industrial, the quality of the silver content remains exact and uncompromising.
Containing just over 16 troy ounces of pure silver, this format is often chosen by investors building a physical silver position in stages, balancing flexibility with value.

Denomination Information
Half kilogram silver bars have become increasingly popular with private investors over the last two decades. They offer a practical alternative to 1kg bars, providing easier resale and lower individual exposure while still benefiting from reduced premiums compared to smaller bars.
Cast silver bars in particular have a long history in bullion markets, originally favoured by institutional buyers and vault storage clients. Their simple form, consistent weight, and clear markings continue to make them a trusted choice today.
