Silver Price History

In January 1980, the price of silver hit a historic low of $11.79 per troy ounce. This low price was caused by a glut of available supply, and by demand from gold users who were transferring their money into the precious metal to protect its value.
The price of silver remained low until 1981, when the price of gold was rising and the price of silver rose with it, reaching a price of $50.02 per ounce. However, in April 1983, the price of silver fell dramatically, hitting a low of $8.54 per ounce. Between 1983 and 1985, the price of silver remained low, fluctuating between $8.50 and $12 per ounce.
