Delivered is the price including delivery to your delivery country, with the shipping costs the shop publishes itself; ordering more in one go often shifts that. The ranking is by price per troy ounce, not by the delivered amount: a shop that publishes no rate would otherwise win by saying nothing. More in the disclaimer.

Background
The troy ounce
The wholesale silver market counts in troy ounces, one troy ounce of metal at least 999 parts per thousand pure. A troy ounce is 31.1034768 grams; both the LBMA and the US measurement institute NIST use that figure, and a kilo is 32.1507465 troy ounces.
Good Delivery
A bar for the London wholesale market is on a different scale: the Good Delivery bar weighs 1,000 troy ounces, about 32 kilos, with a 10% tolerance either way, and has a fineness of at least 999.0 parts per thousand. Bars made before 1 January 2025 with the former, wider weight range of 750 to 1,100 troy ounces remain acceptable.
What makers offer
Heraeus makes the 5 kg silver bar cast, in 999.9. Valcambi also makes it cast, in 999.0.
In Australia
In Australia, 100 oz and 5 kg bars are popular with those with larger budgets, according to Metals Focus: just as liquid as a kilobar, but at a lower premium. A larger bar does make it harder to sell part of a position, which limits the market share of such bars.
In India
In India, high-net-worth investors tend to prefer bars of 5 to 30 kg, according to Metals Focus. Many who buy a bar of 1 to 15 kg there receive a chausa: a piece cut from a 30 kg bar.

The lowest and the median price per troy ounce of fine metal in this class, per day. Gaps in the line are days we did not measure.
Price per troy ounce makes forms comparable: a 5 kg piece next to a kilo bar. What you get back for a higher premium is divisibility: a kilo bar you sell in one go, ten separate coins one by one.
