Cuboid silver powder, method of producing same, and conductive paste

A cuboid silver powder, comprising:

• silver particles,
• wherein
• the cuboid silver powder has a BET specific surface area of 0.5 m2/g or less, an average aspect ratio of the cuboid silver powder is 1.2 or greater and less than 2.0 as determined by observing cross-sections of 100 or more silver particles from the silver particles, and
• an average of values of a ratio represented by Formula 1 below is 0.84 or greater, the ratio being a ratio of a perimeter of one silver particle among the silver particles to a perimeter of a rectangle circumscribing the one silver particle,
• Formula 1:
• L/(2×major axis+2×minor axis)
• where
• L is the perimeter (μm) of the one silver particle, and
• the major axis and the minor axis are, respectively, a long side (μm) and a short side (μm) of the rectangle of a minimum area that circumscribes an outline of a cross-section of the one silver particle.
