After years of dealing in PM, I can surely say that investors buy 1 oz coins considering the bull runs, corrections, and everything in between. However, they leave out the much better option, the 2 oz coins! It is an underappreciated sweet spot that is passed on by novices!
Dealer Insight
Most silver buyers default to 1 oz coins and never run the comparison. Here's the case for 2 oz: Perth Mint Lunar 2 oz coins with mintages under 5,000 have consistently traded 20-40% above issue price on completed sales within 12-24 months of release. Biblical Series and Germania themed 2 oz coins trade at 100-150%+ over spot. Collector demand, not silver content, is driving those numbers. The format splits into two distinct buying decisions: low-premium sovereign bullion (Perth Lunar, Tudor Beasts), where you're buying silver with a collector floor attached, and licensed or themed collector coins, where the design premium is the whole thesis. Decide which you are before you buy.
At BOLD, we carry 2 oz silver coins from the Perth Mint, Royal Canadian Mint, New Zealand Mint, and more — all at real-time pricing with our price match promise. If you find a lower price anywhere else, we'll beat it. Free shipping applies to all orders over $199.
Not all 2 oz silver coins are built the same. Before you add to your cart, understand the distinction that matters most to your buying decision:
| Feature | Bullion Grade | Proof / Collector Grade |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Appeal | Silver content, low premium | Design, limited mintage, presentation |
| Typical Premium Over Spot | 8–15% | 25–60%+ |
| Best For | Stacking, investment | Collecting, gifting, display |
| Liquidity | High — easy to sell | Moderate — collector-dependent market |
| Packaging | Capsule or tube | Box, COA, display case |
| Examples | Generic 2 oz rounds, select sovereigns | Perth Mint colored coins, RCM proof issues |
Here's a detail that most listings skip over entirely, and it's one of the most important things to understand about this coin category: 2 oz silver coins aren't simply heavier versions of 1 oz coins. Many are struck on piedfort blanks — thicker planchets that allow mint engravers to strike designs in dramatically higher relief than a standard-thickness flan can support.
The result is a three-dimensional, sculptural quality you simply cannot achieve on a standard 1 oz blank. The Perth Mint's 2 oz releases, for example, routinely feature layered design fields with multiple depths of relief — something you can physically feel when you hold the coin in your hand. For collectors, this isn't a minor aesthetic footnote. It's the technical reason certain 2 oz coins command meaningful premiums years after their mintage year closes, and why they photograph so dramatically compared to their 1 oz counterparts.
Overlooked Fact
Piedfort coins are a centuries-old tradition originating with European royal mints, originally used to create presentation pieces for diplomats and nobility. Modern sovereign mints have revived the format specifically for the collector bullion segment — making 2 oz the practical modern equivalent of those historically significant presentation strikes.
When evaluating a 2 oz silver coin — whether for our own inventory or for a customer recommendation — I look at four things in this order:
Many are. Perth Mint coins carry an AUD face value; RCM coins carry a CAD face value. However, the face value is purely nominal — far below silver melt value at virtually any spot price. The legal tender designation primarily affects how the coin is classified in certain tax jurisdictions, and has implications for IRA eligibility. Consult a tax advisor for your specific situation.
For standard bullion-grade 2 oz coins: 8–15% over spot is a reasonable range at current market conditions. For proof or colored collector coins from sovereign mints: 25–50% is at issue. Anything beyond 50% over spot on a new release deserves scrutiny unless the mintage is genuinely limited and the secondary market for that specific series is demonstrably active.
Bullion-grade coins: airtight capsules in a cool, dry environment away from direct light. Proof and colored coins: original packaging only — do not remove from the mint box or capsule under any circumstances. Handling proof coins with bare hands is the single fastest way to reduce their value; the oils from your skin cause fingerprints that are nearly impossible to remove from highly polished proof fields without risking further damage.
Eligibility depends on the specific coin and your IRA custodian's approved product list. Most IRS-compliant precious metals IRAs require coins to meet minimum purity standards (.999 fine silver or better) and be produced by an approved sovereign mint. Many Perth Mint and RCM 2 oz coins meet these criteria, but collector-grade or colored coins with non-standard formats may not qualify. Contact our team directly to verify IRA eligibility for any specific 2 oz coin before purchasing for a retirement account.
