SILVER BARS 100 OZ JOHNSON MATTHEY

One of the most recognizable and trusted names in silver production, Johnson Matthey is named after Percival Norton Johnson and George Matthey. The organization was founded back in 1817 as a London gold assaying company and truly burst on to the precious metals scene in 1946. During this time they became the sole producers of silver coinage for the UK. 

Johnson Matthey does produce gold bars, but they have always been more recognized for their silver due to the integrity of the brand and overall variety of products. While their silver bars were once very widely produced, there have not been any new releases since the 1980s.

Investors tend to flock to Johnson Matthey silver as they meet minimum IRA purity requirements and therefore can be included in a precious metals IRA. Since silver spot prices tend to stay well under the price of gold, silver can be a much more affordable alternative hedge for wealth preservation.
