Silver and Gold pie

Silver is known as the "Poor Man's Gold", but for many of those who invest in physical silver bullion, consider Silver to be a "Smart Investment." 

The reason behind silver's "Poor Man's" label is the simple truth that silver is less expensive than gold because it is more abundant in the earth's crust.

The label doesn't diminish silver's relationship with other precious metals to protect your savings and wealth, it states the obvious, that silver is more affordable. 

Silver Facts

Silver ore exists in the Earth's crust in many forms; it's found in its "native silver" elemental form as nuggets or crystals of pure silver, and it often occurs alongside gold, copper, lead and zinc.  Silver also occurs naturally as an alloy with gold, known as electrum.  

Mexico is the leading producer of silver, followed by China, Peru, Chile, Poland, Australia, Bolivia, Russia, the United States, Kazakhstan, Argentina, and India (source).

Silver's atomic number is 47; its chemical symbol on the periodic chart is "Ag." The abbreviation stands for the Latin word for silver: "Argentum."

Silver is a brilliant whitish metal that can take a high polish luster; it is the most reflective element and is used in mirrors, telescopes, microscopes, and solar cells.

Silver is the best elemental conductor of electricity. Silver serves as the benchmark for measuring the conductivity of other conductors. On a scale from 0 to 100, silver scores a perfect 100 in electrical conductivity. By comparison, copper ranks 97, while gold ranks 76.

Silver is the best thermal conductor among all metals. For example, a silver paste is used in every computer; it is applied between the Central Processing Unit (CPU) and motherboard for its effectiveness as both an electrical and thermal conductor.  In addition, only gold is more malleable than silver; one ounce of silver can be drawn into an 8,000-foot-long wire (source).

It is estimated that silver was first used by man around 5000 BC, it is one of the oldest forms of money.  In fact, "silver" and "money" are the same in 14 different languages.


Silver's Price and its
Surplus & Deficit

Deficits in the silver market are often used as a marketing scheme by some in the industry to create a sense of urgency for those interested in purchasing silver.

We all know what happens when a market runs out of something that is in strong demand: the price skyrockets until demand is met; oddly, that isn't what is going on in silver's market.

Silver Surplus / Deficit 2015 - 2024click to enlarge

The silver market is supplied by silver mining and recycled silver. According to the Silver Institute's 2025 World Silver Survey recycled silver comes from silverware, jewelry, coins (unspecified), and industrial scrap.

The first chart to the right gives you a look into the silver market's surpluses and deficits over the last nine years.

The chart is from the Silver Institute's 2025 World Silver Survey (page 11), it shows that the price of silver isn't influenced much when there is a surplus or deficit in the silver market.

The next chart (below-right) from Resource World Magazine, indicates that there is practically no correlation between the price of silver and its supply and deficits.

Silver Surplus / Deficit 1990 - 2021

Those who are familiar with the laws of supply and demand are likely scratching their heads because the price of silver does not align with the typical principles of the subject.

(Note: there are some surplus/deficit discrepancies between the Resource World Magazine's chart and the other charts in this section because the magazine's chart doesn't include coins and bars.)

The chart below, from The Natural Sapphire Company, continues to indicate that there is a problem between silver's price and supply and demand principles.

In the chart below, the highest green bar appears in 1980, indicating that silver had its largest surplus that year; however, silver's price nearly reached $50.00 per troy ounce in 1980, as seen here, if you click this link.

In the 1990s, at the end of the chart below, silver's supply suffered from deep deficits; however, as seen in the chart directly above, the price of silver was under $10.00 a troy ounce for the entire decade.

Silver Surplus / Deficit 1960 - 2001

According to the laws of supply and demand, these occasions in the silver market shouldn't happen; when there is a deficit in supply, the price of silver should rise, and when there is a surplus, the price should fall.

Price manipulation is how some in the bullion industry address this issue, but it does not explain how the shortages in silver supply are filled to meet demand.

Either the laws of supply and demand do not apply to silver, or when there has been a deficit in the silver supply, those who needed silver managed to obtain it from existing sources, because there is no other way to explain how or why the price didn't skyrocket when demand wasn't met.

In addition, all the charts above come from credible sources, as is noted at the bottom of each chart (CPM Group, Silver Institute, LBMA, Bloomberg). 

Somewhere, something is not right. The question is: Where?

Answer:

Implied Unreported Silver Stocks

Source: CPM Group: Silver Bullion Inventories

The CPM Group has for years posted versions of the chart above to explain the issue of surpluses and deficits in relation to its price by showing that there are billions of troy ounces of unaccounted silver bullion on the secondary market. 

"Implied Unreported Silver Stocks" refers to silver bullion bars, rounds, and pre-1970 U.S. silver coins that trade on the secondary market.

The chart to the right indicates that in the late 1960s, the U.S. Treasury sold off its silver inventories as the U.S. government moved away from a silver-backed currency and ended its restrictions on the sale of silver to the public and private entities.

The following is what caused the U.S. government to sell off its silver inventories.

During the 1960s, the United States circulated silver coins for everyday transactions. As a result, the government pegged the price of silver at $1.29 per ounce. However, this price faced upward pressure due to the growing demand for silver in both industrial applications and coin production.

In 1963, after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, the U.S. Congress authorized the silver half dollar to be changed from Benjamin Franklin to JFK to memorialize the fallen president. 

When the Kennedy half-dollar was released in 1964, the coin was hoarded by the public because it was so prized, and although the U.S. Mint increased production to meet demand, the silver coin was seldom seen in circulation.

The surge in silver demand led to significant depletion of the U.S. government's silver reserves, making it impossible for the government to maintain control over silver prices.

To address silver supply shortages, the United States enacted the Coinage Act of 1965, which removed silver from dimes and quarters. In 1967, the United States stopped pegging the price of silver at $1.29, and silver began to be priced as a commodity.  See the chart below provided courtesy of SD Bullion.  

The Coinage Act also declared that from 1965 to 1970, the silver content in half dollars was reduced from ninety percent to forty percent. By 1970, all silver was eliminated from half dollars.

Furthermore, since the late 1960s, refiners and bullion manufacturers worldwide have been selling silver bullion bars and rounds in addition to the billions of troy ounces of silver that the United States sold off.

Much of this bullion is in this category of unreported silver stocks that are on the secondary market. 

To explain further, we'll look at Engelhard bullion bars and rounds as an example to give you an idea of how much of their bullion is on the secondary market.

Engelhard produced hundreds of millions of ounces of silver bullion bars and rounds for the secondary market between the late 1960s and 1988.

The site All Engelhard maintains a vast inventory of Engelhard silver bars and rounds. It is the only site that offers such a large database. In fact, no other website provides a database as extensive for Engelhard's silver bullion bars and rounds.

However, "All Engelhard" doesn't account for all Engelhard silver bullion ever made.  There is no way to know how much remains on the secondary market. 

Now, let's take this truth about Engelhard and add all the hundreds of millions of troy ounces of silver bullion manufactured by Johnson Matthey, Heraeus, PAMP, Degussa, Sunshine Minting, Metalor, and many other refiners and bullion manufacturers. 

The reality is that no one knows the exact number of silver bullion bars and rounds produced by these manufacturers. Serial numbers are placed on the bars primarily as a service for the holder to keep track of their bullion, rather than for the corporations that create it. Refiners don't record or maintain databases of all the bullion they produce; this practice is commonplace industry-wide and a surprise to many.

Furthermore, even if any such databases existed, how much has been previously melted down or is currently owned, due to privacy issues, is virtually impossible to find out.

Now, add all the silver bars and rounds on the secondary market to this scenario—that is reality—in addition to all the pre-1970 U.S. silver coins, also known as junk silver coins, and you come up with a staggering quantity of "Unreported Stock" of silver bullion.

Engelhard 100oz. Silver Bullion Bar (Horizontal / Extruded Bar)

Furthermore, the opening paragraph on All Engelhard’s 100oz silver bullion bar page (below in red) is just one example of the thousands of different ways these "Implied Unreported Bullion Stocks" of silver are moved from the secondary market into the silver market to meet demand.

One of our regular contributors reminisced about a day, in 2010, when he walked in to a prominent Daytona Beach jewelry store and noticed half an Engelhard 100oz 1st series bar on the counter.  He jokingly asked, ‘where’s the other half?’ and the salesperson replied, ‘we only use Engelhard silver to make our jewelry and rounds.  It’s the most trusted silver.’  This particular merchant designs and fabricates between 15,000 to 20,000 1oz custom silver commemorative rounds every year for ‘Bike Week’, and they have been doing this for some 25 years.  Hence, their production consumes 150-200 Engelhard 100oz bars every year for these custom rounds.  Makes you wonder if there are other similar stories out there!  - All Engelhard 100oz AG Bar Introduction

Lastly, on this issue. Technically speaking, there is no way anyone can track "Implied Unreported Silver Stocks" of silver bullion because it's "Unreported."

Case in point, the CPM group has done more than one revision of the "Implied Unreported Silver Stocks" chart.

The chart on the right is an outdated CPM Group chart from 2018, while the first chart above on this topic is the most recent.

This illustrates that it is impossible to determine the amount of unreported silver stock being traded in the secondary market.

The one thing that is clear out of all this information is that silver does not have a deficit problem.

Demand for Silver in the Markets

Silver has two major roles in the markets; its primary role, 55 percent, is as an industrial metal, which includes the solar industry, chemical catalysts, electronics, and other industries.

Its second role, accounting for 45 percent of its market, is as a monetary metal used in coins, bars, jewelry, and silverware due to its luster, durability, and intrinsic value.

Monetary metals like silver and other precious metals are 'decentralized' forms of money; they have no liabilities, and they will never be worth zero.

Silver's Pricing Dynamics

Silver's monetary and industrial markets make its price more dynamic than gold, which is considered solely a monetary metal because only 10% of gold's market is devoted to industry.  Gold is primarily purchased as a store of wealth by individuals and central banks.

As noted earlier, 55% of silver's demand is industrial; the chart to the right indicates that silver's industrial demand has been rising consistently over the last 10 years and is expected to continue.

Solar Energy is one of the fastest-growing industries globally; currently it consumes more than 200 million ounces of silver annually and has been consistently growing more than 25% year over year since 2015.

2015 - 2025 Silver Global Demand Forecast

Silver's industrial demand gives it a price floor, but it doesn't govern the movement of silver's price; its relationship with gold as a monetary metal governs its price.

Monetary metals are safe havens; they bring certainty in uncertain times.

In a portfolio, monetary metals serve as a counterweight to what are considered riskier investments; they have no counterparty risk, no liability, and they will never be worth zero.

The primary driver of a monetary metal's price is uncertainty. In contrast, during periods of high certainty in the markets, such as the late 1990s, when investor confidence and stock market gains reduced the appeal of gold, monetary metals can be worth less than the cost to extract them from the ground. (Source: MINING.COM: How big miners are reliving the late 90’s bust: Steve Todoruk - Oct. 16,2014

According to estimates, silver has moved 77% of the time in the same direction as gold over the last 50 years due to the monetary characteristics that both metals share. (source: BullionVault)

In the chart below, the monetary movement similarities between silver and gold are evident, as silver's price moves in a comparable direction with gold.  However, silver is more volatile than gold because the size of silver's market is much smaller than many realize.

The silver market is approximately $95 billion annually (source), whereas the gold market is about $5 trillion annually (source).  This significant difference means that silver's price tends to be more volatile than gold's, especially when large sums of capital are added to or withdrawn from its market.

Silver Protects Purchasing Power



As a hedge against inflation, owning silver or gold is essential because it preserves one's "Purchasing Power."

The chart above provides a glimpse into the impact of inflation on the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar, showing that $1.00 today has the same purchasing power as $0.04 had in 1872.

How did this happen?

Today, the U.S. dollar is the world's reserve currency, held by many governments for trade, savings, and investment purposes; it is also used by many countries to settle imports and stabilize their own currencies.

However, the U.S. dollar is a fiat currency, meaning it is not backed by a physical commodity like gold or silver. The value of the U.S. dollar comes from trust in the stability of the U.S. government and its ability to meet its debt obligations and maintain low inflation.

The chart above reveals that the majority of the value of the U.S. dollar was lost after it was no longer backed by gold and silver.

Before 1933, gold and silver were literally the money in Americans' pockets and used for everyday exchange.  The cash in Americans' pockets at the time was known as silver certificates and gold certificates that were redeemable for the physical precious metal.

In 1933, Democrat President Franklin Delano Roosevelt abandoned the gold standard when he signed Executive Order 6102 into law. 

Executive Order 6102 made it illegal for U.S. Citizens to hold gold coins, gold bullion, or gold certificates. 

In 1934, the Gold Reserve Act was passed, changing the statutory gold value of the U.S. dollar from $20.67 to $35 an ounce.

The Act reduced the purchasing power of the dollar by more than a third, and it enabled the Federal Reserve to expand the money supply.


=

After World War II, 44 countries convened on Bretton Woods, NH, to create a de facto gold standard known as the Bretton Woods System of Monetary Management

The Bretton Woods system kept gold valued at $35.00 a troy ounce, but the U.S. dollar was now considered as good as gold to the holder, who could no longer own gold; foreign countries were the only ones who could exchange U.S. dollars for gold bullion or gold bullion for U.S. dollars.

On August 15, 1971,  Republican President Richard Nixon took the United States off the Bretton Woods system and completely separated the U.S. dollar's convertibility to gold, which eroded the value of the U.S. dollar and has ever since.

Note: Executive Order 6102 was overturned on December 31, 1974, when U.S. Republican President Gerald R. Ford Jr. signed Executive Order 11825.

The order repealed Executive Order 6102, signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, which forbade U.S. citizens to own gold.  On the same day Executive Order 11825 was signed into law, many precious metals refiners including Engelhard Industries began to provide gold bullion bars and rounds for the public to purchase.    

In 1977, the U.S. Congress passed a law forbidding any U.S. President to confiscate gold from U.S. citizens except during a time of war. 

The Purchasing Power of Silver

The Silver price chart below, provided by GoldBroker.com, illustrates how silver has retained its purchasing power since President Nixon took the United States off the Gold Standard and silver began to be priced and traded as a commodity.


Now that we've gone over silver's supply, demand, its pricing dynamics, and purchasing power, let's introduce you to one of the best barometers for determining when to buy or sell silver.





The Gold to Silver Ratio
a barometer for buying and selling

For those who want to invest in silver (or gold) and receive the greatest return, they should pay attention to the Gold to Silver Ratio.

Interpreting
the Gold to Silver Ratio

Gold per Troy Oz. (ozt.)
Silver per Troy Oz. (ozt.)

The "Gold to Silver Ratio" represents the number of silver ounces it takes to buy one ounce of gold.

The gold-to-silver ratio serves as a barometer to help you decide when to buy or sell gold and silver.

A high gold-to-silver ratio means that more silver ounces are needed to purchase one troy ounce of gold.

This means that silver is in a buyer's market, and its prices are relatively low compared to gold prices.

When the gold-to-silver ratio is low, it suggests that silver prices are high while gold is undervalued, indicating that gold is in a buyer's market as silver prices approach parity with gold.

The chart below reveals that over the last 50+ years, the median for the gold-to-silver ratio is 62.   

Over the last 40 years, the gold-to-silver ratio has mostly been above the median. Therefore, the following is the best way to maximize returns when interpreting this ratio.

To maximize returns on gold or silver:

  • buy silver when the ratio is 10 or more points above the median number
  • buy gold when the ratio is near or below the median number
