Are Silver prices per ounce the same no matter where I live or what time it is?

When buying Silver bars, especially if you are a new investor, you may wonder if Silver prices are the same no matter where you are in the world, and the answer is yes. Silver is traded 24 hours per day, seven days per week, and this Precious Metal is a part of many global commodity markets, with the New York Commodity Exchange being the most important for determining the Silver spot price. The Silver spot price is the price for one troy ounce of unfabricated Silver, and this price does not include the premium, which covers the cost of production, distribution, a small dealer fee and any numismatic or collector value. The price of Silver bars can vary from dealer to dealer because of the premium, while the Silver spot price itself is the same no matter what time it is or where you live.
