Scrap Silver Prices at a Peak

Scrap Silver Prices at a Peak

15/01/2026     General News

The scrap silver market is currently experiencing exceptionally strong levels, presenting an outstanding opportunity for those considering selling silver at this time.

Sustained international demand, combined with wider economic factors, has driven silver prices to notable highs. As a result, the value of scrap silver — including broken, unfashionable, or redundant pieces — has risen significantly, with sellers benefitting from increased competition and firmer prices.

At Elstob Auctioneers, silver remains one of our most dynamic and consistently successful categories. We offer in excess of 300 silver lots every month, attracting a broad and discerning international buying audience. This depth of market ensures robust bidding and realistic, market-led results across all grades of silver.

Importantly, scrap silver need not be pristine to perform well. Items that are damaged, incomplete, or no longer suited to modern tastes continue to achieve strong prices when presented professionally and exposed to the right buyers.

With values at current levels, this is an opportune moment to review silver holdings and consider bringing them to market. Our experienced specialists provide discreet, informed advice and can guide you through the consignment process with care and confidence.
