999 vs 925 Silver
999 silver is fine silver, 999 parts per 1,000, and is the usual standard for coins and bars bought for their metal content. 925 silver, or sterling silver, is 925 parts silver per 1,000, alloyed with other metals for hardness, and is common in jewellery. Because a 925 item holds less silver per gram, its metal content is lower than a 999 item of the same weight, and its final price also depends on design and making charges. Compare coins on metal weight and purity first, and read the bill break-up before comparing two sellers.
Check the coin before buying: weight in grams, purity stamped as 999 or 925, GST shown as a separate line, and premium or making charge shown as a separate line. A bill that shows only one lump sum does not let you check any of these.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the price of a 10 gram silver coin today?
On the IBJA indicative AM rate of 29 October 2026, the metal value of a 10 gram 999 fine silver coin is Rs. 1,904.97. Adding 3% GST on the metal value (Rs. 57.15) gives Rs. 1,962.12 before any minting premium or making charge. A shop price is higher than Rs. 1,962.12 only by the premium or making charge that seller adds.
Why is the shop price of a silver coin higher than the market rate?
The market rate is the metal value only. A shop bill adds GST at 3% on the metal value, plus a minting premium or making charge and, for some sellers, packaging or delivery. Those additions are shown separately on this page and are never blended into the market rate.
What is the difference between 999 and 925 silver?
999 silver is 999 parts silver per 1,000, effectively fine silver, and is the standard for investment coins and bars. 925 silver, also called sterling silver, is 925 parts silver per 1,000 with the balance made up of other metals, which makes it harder and more suited to jewellery that is worn daily. A 925 item therefore contains less silver per gram than a 999 item of the same weight, and its price cannot be read directly off the 999 rate.
Does the coin price on this page include GST?
No single coin price on this page bundles everything together. The metal value (Rs. 1,904.97 for 10 grams, 29 October 2026) is shown on its own, GST at 3% (Rs. 57.15) is shown as its own line, and any seller premium is left unstated because it varies by seller and was not verified as a single figure.
