Physical Silver Tracker
AgVault is the digital vault for your physical silver stack. Track coins, bars, rounds and jewelry with precise purity-adjusted valuations, real-time XAG prices, and professional portfolio analytics.
Tracking Physical Silver vs Paper Silver
Physical silver — coins, bars, and rounds you can hold in your hands — is fundamentally different from ETFs, futures contracts, or paper silver certificates. When you own physical silver, you own the metal outright: no counterparty, no custodian risk, no rehypothecation.
But tracking physical silver has its own challenges. Each item may have a different purity, weight, and purchase date. Some may be stored in different locations. The aggregate value changes daily with the silver spot price. And the purity of your specific alloy — 999, 925, 900 — determines the exact melt value.
AgVault handles all of this automatically. Add each physical item individually, and AgVault calculates the precise melt value of each piece and your total physical silver portfolio value in real-time.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes AgVault good for tracking physical silver?
AgVault is designed specifically for physical precious metals — not paper or ETF positions. It handles purity calculations, troy ounce weights, multi-currency valuations, and all the nuances of physical silver ownership that generic investment trackers miss.
Can I add photos of my physical silver?
Yes. When adding an item to your vault, you can upload a photo of each coin, bar, or round for reference. This makes it easy to identify specific items and maintain an insurance-quality record of your collection.
Can I track silver by storage location?
Yes. AgVault supports a storage location field for each item, so you can record whether silver is in a home safe, bank vault, or with a storage provider.
