Silver Badges are a type of badge that give the editor 50 points when they are received. They are the second easiest to obtain. There are currently 19 silver badges. Excluding custom badges, obtaining all the silver badges will reward the editor with 650 points, however this is raised to 750 if the Sharing Badges were obtained before their retirement in July 2011. If the unreleased Blog Post Badges were to be made official, then this would be raised to 950.
