How much is 1 ounce of silver worth in Bulgaria today?
As of Wednesday, February 18, 2026, the spot price for 1 ounce of silver in Bulgaria is approximately 120.84 BGN.
However, the "worth" of silver depends on whether you are looking at the raw market price or physical investment products. Below is a breakdown of current values:
Silver Market Rates (Spot Price)
Investment Silver (Physical)
If you are looking to buy or sell physical silver (coins or bars) at a local dealer like Tavex or Florinus, the prices will differ due to dealer premiums and VAT:
Buying Price: Expect to pay between 145 лв. and 165 лв. for a standard 1 oz silver coin (like the Vienna Philharmonic) because physical silver in the EU often carries a significant markup and VAT.
Selling Price: If you are selling silver back to a dealer, they will typically offer you closer to the spot price, roughly 118 лв. to 125 лв. per ounce depending on the condition and brand.
Important Notes
Volatility: Precious metal prices fluctuate throughout the day based on global markets.
VAT: In Bulgaria, silver is generally subject to 20% VAT, which is why the retail price for a coin is significantly higher than the "spot" price you see on news tickers.
