The silver market never fails to provide true diversity for those who wish to purchase silver items. While you can choose from silver coins, silver bars, silver rounds, silver statues, and even silver bullets when buying at Provident Metals, we also have other types of silver that include silver shot and silver shavings. Provident Metals currently offers 100 oz Silver Shavings to you for online purchasing.

Highlights:

• Arrives with a clear plastic cylinder!
• Features small silver shavings!
• Contains 100 Troy oz of .999 pure silver.
• Silver shaved from larger blocks or chunks of silver.

When you purchase the 100 oz Silver Shavings in this Provident Metals listing, you receive your silver shavings packaged in a clear plastic cylinder from SilverTowne Mint. The cylinder contains enough small silver shavings to reach 100 Troy oz in total weight, with SilverTowne Mint certifying the total metal content as having .999 purity.

The exterior of the plastic cylinder has a SilverTowne Mint certification label that identifies the purity, metal content, and weight of the shavings within. The lid is secured with white tamper-evident tape and the entire cylinder is shrink-wrapped in clear plastic for additional security for your silver shavings.

Design

Each of the small shavings that make up the 100 oz Silver Shavings in this cylinder are produced by SilverTowne by shaving the silver bits off from larger blocks or chunks of silver. Unlike silver shot, these shavings are small, curled bits of thin silver that SilverTowne has found will melt as much as two times faster than traditional silver shot.

Uses

Like silver shot, silver shavings are used by hobbyists, artisans, jewelers, and even small mints to produce various products. Silver shavings can be used by small mints to produce silver bullion blanks that can then be refined further into silver rounds or silver bars. Small jewelers can use silver shavings to create distinctive, one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces or even produce repair parts for necklaces, earrings, and watches. Artisans can express their creativity by reshaping silver into whatever comes to mind. Silver shavings have a world of uses.

History

SilverTowne Mint produces these batches of silver shavings in 1 Kilo and 10 Troy oz batches in addition to these 100 Troy oz batches. Founded in 1949 by Leon Hendrickson, SilverTowne started life as a small coin shop and has grown over the course of the decades to become one of the leading private mints in the United States.
