This is all new to me. How do I buy silver in bars?
Find a dealer I suspect.
Keep in mind, in a SHTF scenario that bars are difficult to conceal, transport and use with smaller transactions.
From a purely monetary investment point of view though, I suppose they’re fine.
American Precious Metals Exchange is a reliable respected source of gold and silver as coins or bars www.APMEX.com
Coast to coast coin is another good source. www.coastcoin.com
Under the Patriot Act, if you pay by cashier’s check, bank check, money order or travelers check you will have to fill out IRS form 3003 and submit a copy of your drivers license IF you plan to purchase in excess of $10,000 worth. So be sure to use a personal check instead if your order exceeds $10,000.
Both websites enable you to view each coin, enlarge the picture, see the obverse and reverse sides.
To help to end the madness of our oppressive government I suggest you visit www.campaignforliberty.com created by the only Congressman who has voted “No!” as the sole such vote over 300 times because he reads the bills and if there is no authorization for the power the Congress is seeking in Article 1 Section 8 he votes against it!, Ron Paul is also the sponsor of HR1207 The Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2009 which now has 311 cosponsors in the House and 30 for sister bill S604 in the Senate to have a real and thorough Audit of the Federal Reserve.
www.YALiberty.org is on 170 campuses and is endorsed by Ron Paul.
the Campaign For Liberty has 224,548 members having grown exponentially since I joined a year ago when there were 6,000. Our mission is to continue to pass the torch to enlighten the populace one at a time until there are enough of us to replace the politicians who ignore and fail to keep their oath to preserve the Constitution with those of us who will keep the oath and restore our limited constitutional Republic.
There is much to read at www.campaignforliberty.com and at www.mises.org which is the Ludwig von Mises Institute website where many of the books are available to read online for free.
www.atlassociety.com is another site where the philosophical discussion is enlightening.

“I was in Europe when the Constitution was planned, and never saw it till after it was established. On receiving it, I wrote strongly to Mr. Madison, urging the want of provision for... an express reservation to the States of all rights not specifically granted to the Union.” —Thomas Jefferson to Joseph Priestley, 1802”
“The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first.-Thomas Jefferson”
“Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have ... The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases.” - Thomas Jefferson
