Question about 100 oz. bars of silver

[Immy]

What are the typical dimensions of a 100 oz. bar? I'm trying to figure out if one will fit in my safety deposit boxes or if I'll have to get a bigger one.

I think it depends on Maker but not sure.
But it can't be Much Different if there is.

Thanks Jeff!

If you have them, why not just measure them, instead of asking on this site? Or are you planning on a purchase, just curious. Hope they fit.

Silver is at $17.89 right now.

Better Buy Soon.

There may be another Correction to $17.50

but $18 is just around the Bend.

Right, when I reach 100 oz. in 40% halves (about 676 coins) I want to trade 'em in for a bar and save space.

[jeff of pa]

Unless you know someone Figure on a 2 to 5% trade fee

so better round that off to 700 just in case

That's why you're the Mod Jeff...

That was my next question. My coin shop of choice wasn't big on the idea of a straight trade. Hey, it didn't hurt to ask. An extra 2%-5% sounds fair. Thanks again for the info!
