Silver Price Chart in Australian Dollars
Australia is one of the world’s top producers of silver, so it’s no surprise that there are plenty of silver investors down under. However, it might be something of a frustration to Australian investors due to the fact that the price of silver is routinely calculated in terms of American dollars. The chart on this page solves that particular problem.
The chart above features several different silver prices — all expressed in terms of Australian dollars. First of all, we have real-time silver prices for the current trading day in the top left corner of the dashboard. We also have the historical data on silver’s price stretching back to January 1, 1995 — all in AUD.
This page is designed for Australian silver investors, Aussies interested in buying or selling silver more casually, or market watchers. As it turns out, there are several reasons beyond annoyance that Australian silver investors should use this chart.
Why Monitor Silver in AUD?
One of two primary reasons to monitor silver’s price in terms of AUD is that doing so makes it easier to understand the movements of the white metal’s value. For one thing, you don’t have to do any mental calculations to figure out what a change in USD means for you in Australia.
It’s also much less difficult to contextualize the shifts in price that you see when they are couched in terms of AUD, rather than USD. You can equate the shifts in terms of utility bills, restaurant tickets, or other common expenditures that you use Australian dollars to pay.
The biggest reason to monitor silver in AUD, however, is the potential for investment opportunities that the chart presents. Specifically, you may be able to capitalize on movements in silver’s price that are unique to AUD and are attributable to exchange rate fluctuations, not actual changes in the value of silver. Here’s how that works:
- When the Australian dollar strengthens against the American one, it becomes easier for Australians to purchase silver. Thus, demand increases, and the price of silver rises. In these times, you can realize additional profit by selling existing silver assets.
- If AUD weaken against USD, then the opposite situation occurs. Australians don’t buy as much, and silver’s price goes down. If you can wait until the dip reaches its lowest point, then you can pick up silver more cheaply than before.
The key to this type of determination is a comparison between the AUD silver chart and the USD silver chart. If you can detect where there is significant divergence in the price history, it is an indication that there is exchange rate pressure at work, rather than a comment on the overall supply and demand for silver.
How to Use the Silver Price Chart
Using the silver price chart in any currency is a fairly simple endeavor. The chart feature is designed to be flexible and interactive so that you can tailor your study to your own needs and goals.
The first thing to notice about the chart are the five listings about the silver prices for the current day’s trading. We have the spot, bid, and ask prices for silver that are all updated in real-time. We also display the high and low prices for the day, though those are only updated as the situation demands throughout the day.
The default view of the chart is for the current day. If you want to look back over the past year, you can make use of the preset buttons listed on the dashboard.
However, assuming you want a more historical study, you should select the “All” option to look at the full scope of our data. We have every silver price at the close of business for every trading day since January 1, 1995.
From there, you can designate the date range you want to use in the blanks that appear underneath the preset buttons. Alternatively, you can set the range using the slider that rests beneath the chart itself.
In either case, you can then hover over any datapoint with your cursor or finger to get more explicit information about each position on the chart. Be aware, though, that you may need to shrink your date range in order to get day-level information. The datapoints on larger swaths of time may only give averages for months or weeks, rather than the price on a given date.
Finally, you can examine the chart for any correlations it may have with other financial indicators or other metrics. For instance, you can see how crude oil, the FTSE 100, or the value of the US dollar have moved in comparison to the movements of silver during the same time period.
What Influences the Price of Silver?
Like all commodities, the price of silver is a function of the relationship between the supply of silver and the demand for it. There are several different factors that can impact one or both of these drivers, such as:
- Geopolitical conflicts: Any kind of unrest, be it civil, trade, or outright war, can cause nervousness for investors. If it seems as though times are getting tougher or less stable, investors tend to secure their wealth inside silver (and gold), and the price of silver goes up. For instance, the new US tariff policy of 2025 generated shockwaves worldwide and was one of the primary factors that caused silver to set a new all-time high price of A$57.33.
- Industrial demand: Silver stands apart from gold in that it is in high demand from various industries. The medical, electronic, and the solar energy industries rely heavily on the elemental properties of silver to make their machinery or products. Silver’s new high price in June 2025 was only the culmination of two years of price growth, a product of growing demand for green energy and the silver-bearing photovoltaic cells intrinsic to solar panels.
- Inflation: In difficult economic times, governments often issue additional currency in a bid to inject new life into their economies and arrest downturns or recessions. As a result, inflation, or the dilution of the currency’s purchasing power, increases. When high inflation happens, investors often look to silver to guard the value of their wealth. This situation is the primary factor behind the previous record high price for silver — A$44.35/oz in April 2011.
- Mining shortages or difficulties: Although silver is far more abundant on earth than other precious metals, it still requires a great deal of effort and coordination to mine at scale. Even if silver mining is proceeding as normal, increasing demand can create shortage situations. In fact, part of silver’s increasing price in the 2020s has been due to demand outrunning supply between 2021 and 2024.
