Factors affecting the value of silver

When it comes to valuing silver, there are several factors that affect its value. Many of the traditional pawn shops only lend based on silver weight and silver price. At pantlån we think differently, by analyzing all parts of your item you can maximize your chances of getting the best value for your silver.

Some of the factors we include in our assessment are:

  1. Purity and quality: The purity of silver, often stated in terms of sterling silver (92.5% purity) or 925, is an important factor. The higher the purity, the higher the value.
  2. Condition: An item in good condition, with no visible damage or wear, tends to be valued higher.
  3. Rarity and demand: Older or rare silver items with historical or artistic value may have a higher market value.
  4. Market price of silver: The current silver price on the market plays a crucial role. Fluctuations in the commodity market can affect the value of silver.
  5. Design and craftsmanship: Beautifully designed or skillfully made silver items may have a higher collector's value.

What are carats?

Carats are used to measure the purity of gold and other metals. It is important to know the carat number of gold because it affects the value and quality of the gold item. The higher the carat number, the higher the purity and the higher the value. Carats indicate the percentage of gold in an alloy, with 24 carats representing 100% gold.
