A precious metals IRA is a self-directed individual retirement account that may hold certain IRS-approved physical gold, silver, platinum, or palladium products through an eligible custodian. Eligibility, storage, fees, and tax treatment depend on the account and custodian rules, so consult a qualified custodian or tax professional before making a retirement-account decision.
Gold, silver, platinum, and palladium products may be IRA eligible when they meet applicable purity, product, and custodian requirements. Use the IRA Eligibility filter on this page to identify products marked as eligible, then confirm the specific product and account requirements with your custodian.
Start by choosing a silver coin, bar, or round and comparing its weight, purity, premium, availability, and total price. Agate Precious Metals lets you browse silver bullion by product type and weight; review the product details, shipping information, and return policy before completing your order.
Consider your budget, preferred product format, weight, liquidity, and collecting goals. Gold and silver offer broad product selection, while platinum and palladium provide additional metal choices. Compare products using the Shop filters and review current pricing and product details before buying.
