Buy a 1 oz Buffalo Silver Bar from 888 Bullion. Containing 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver, this pre-owned silver bullion bar combines investment-grade physical silver with a classic American Buffalo design.
The bar features a detailed American bison at the centre, surrounded by the inscriptions “SILVER BULLION,” “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “ONE TROY OUNCE” and “FINE .999 SILVER.”
With a full troy ounce of fine silver in a compact bullion format, this 1 oz silver bar is an accessible choice for investors looking to build their physical silver holdings.
The Buffalo is one of the most recognisable designs found across American-style silver bullion.
This particular bar features a large American bison standing prominently in the centre of the design, accompanied by its clearly marked weight and .999 silver purity.
The design takes inspiration from classic American Buffalo-themed coinage and bullion, making Buffalo silver bars popular with both precious metal investors and collectors.
Unlike legal-tender silver coins issued by a government mint, this is a privately produced silver bullion bar and does not carry a monetary denomination. Not sure whether bars or coins suit you better? Read our guide: Silver Coins vs Silver Bars: Which Is Better for UK Investors?

Surrounding the central design are several inscriptions confirming the bullion nature, weight and purity of the bar, including:
SILVER BULLION
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
ONE TROY OUNCE
FINE .999 SILVER
The combination of the American Buffalo imagery and clearly stated silver specifications creates a traditional bullion appearance that is instantly recognisable to many precious metal investors.

The 1 oz silver bar is one of the most convenient formats for purchasing physical silver bullion. For a broader introduction to silver investing, read our guide on how to invest in silver for beginners in the UK.
Rather than committing to a much larger silver bar, investors can gradually build their holdings one troy ounce at a time.
This product is supplied pre-owned. For a full guide to buying secondary-market bullion, see: New vs Pre-Owned Bullion: Which Should You Buy?
As a secondary-market bullion product, the bar may display signs of previous handling or storage, including scratches, marks, toning, tarnishing or other cosmetic imperfections.
These cosmetic characteristics do not alter the bar's stated weight or .999 fine silver content.
For bullion investors, pre-owned silver bars can provide an attractive way of purchasing physical silver where the primary focus is the underlying precious metal content rather than perfect cosmetic condition.
Please note that appearance and condition may vary between individual bars.
A 1 oz silver bar offers an accessible and flexible way to own physical silver. For a full overview, read our guide on how to invest in silver for beginners in the UK.
The smaller size allows investors to gradually build a silver portfolio and provides greater divisibility compared with owning the same amount of silver in a single large bullion bar.
One-ounce bars are also straightforward to store and can potentially be sold individually, providing additional flexibility when managing a physical silver holding. You can also sell silver to 888 Bullion in London.
Physical silver gives investors direct ownership of a tangible precious metal. See how silver compares to gold in our Gold vs Silver Investment in the UK (2026) guide.

Silver also has extensive industrial applications alongside global investment demand.
As with all investments, silver prices can rise or fall and future returns are not guaranteed.
Pre-owned bullion can be particularly attractive to investors primarily interested in acquiring physical silver rather than paying additional premiums for presentation or collectability. Read our full guide: New vs Pre-Owned Bullion: Which Should You Buy?
The investment value of a generic silver bullion bar is principally influenced by factors including:

1 oz silver bars offer an accessible way to build a physical silver holding gradually. Their smaller size also provides greater flexibility because individual ounces can potentially be sold separately rather than selling a larger bullion bar. Read more in our silver investing beginners guide.
Pre-owned silver bars can be attractive to bullion investors because their underlying value is primarily determined by their silver content, weight, purity and the prevailing silver price. Cosmetic marks generally do not change the amount of fine silver contained within the bar. See our guide: New vs Pre-Owned Bullion.
No. This is a privately produced silver bullion bar, not a legal-tender coin issued by the United States Mint. For government-minted silver coins, see our Silver Britannias and silver coin range.
Normal toning or tarnishing does not change the stated quantity of silver contained in the bar. Pre-owned bullion may naturally develop cosmetic marks or toning through handling and storage.
