Gold and other precious metal IRAs are an investment and carry risk. Consumers should be alert to claims that customers can make a lot of money in these or any investment with little risk. As with any investment, you can lose money and past performance is not a guarantee of future performance results. Consumers should also obtain a clear understanding of the fees associated with any investment before agreeing to invest.

What is Patriot Gold Group?

Patriot Gold Group is a precious metals dealer based in Seal Beach, California, with several decades of experience. It offers a collection of gold and silver coins and bars, plus self-directed precious metal IRAs.

Clients have a direct working relationship with one of the company's owners, and you can set up a new IRA in as little as 24 hours.

How does Patriot Gold Group work?

You can purchase gold and silver through the company as either a physical investment or as a retirement account addition. To get started, you can complete an application online, or you can also call to speak with a Patriot Gold Group representative to learn more about the process.

Keep in mind that while purchases aren’t available online, you can add gold and silver products to a quote tool on Patriot’s website to simplify the process.

Patriot Gold Group products

Patriot Gold Group sells gold and silver coins and bars that you can have delivered to your home or invested in a precious metal IRA. There are also references to platinum and palladium on the company’s website, though it doesn’t seem to offer any products in these metals at the time of publishing.

More than 25 gold and silver coin options are available from Patriot Gold Group, including bullion coins, private coins, proof coins and IRA-eligible coins. The IRS has purity requirements for any precious metals held in an IRA, so only approved products can be used to take advantage of an IRA’s tax benefits.

Patriot Gold Group pricing

Patriot Gold doesn’t list prices online for its gold and silver products. You have to call, email or chat online with a representative to find out the current value of each coin or bar.

The company doesn’t detail its IRA fees online, but accounts below the no-fees-for-life limit have to pay for rollovers, storage and insurance every year for eligible IRAs. If your IRA account doesn’t meet certain minimum requirements, it’s subject to additional fees. There is also a minimum investment requirement of $50,000.

Once we made the decision to transfer my 403b funds and my husband’s IRA into Silver my research brought me to Patriot Gold Group based on their outstanding ratings. My initial contact person was Andy who thoroughly explained the process of transferring our funds into a Silver IRA. We were not pressured or rushed to invest with Patriot Gold, but were given the time and information necessary to make our decision.

Once we did, Andy provided us with information about the cost and resell value of various coins in the approved group of silver we could transfer into a Precious Metal IRA. He provided valuable information about the best bang for our investment. We were confident that we had made the right decisions. The process was simple and completed once the funding source approved the transfer. When Andy was away and I had a question, Will provided me with the answers I needed. We are very happy with both agents and confident that our funds are in good hands.

    I have worked for the Dept. of Homeland Security for the past 22 years. I have dealt with and deal with all of the Director's and CEO's from all the different Federal Agencies. Along with the different Branches of the Military. So I am pretty well rounded when it comes to dealing with people, issues, and resolutions. I can tell when I talk to someone more or less what type of person they are. What type of experience they have, or whether they have been well Educated or Trained. From the very beginning of my conversation I had with Frank C. I was very comfortable with the way I was address and spoken too.

    Even though I was not very familiar with the Process, He not only informed me of what I needed to do, but helped me through the process. He never tried to hurry me or persuade me in any way to make a decision. I very much like working with Frank C. and look forward to working with him again in the future. I have nothing but good things to say about the man, and respect...

    I had no experience or hard knowledge in dealing with precious metals. I only knew that I wanted to get away from the stock market and this was a viable solution with physical assets. Once I made the initial inquiry, Ron ** led me through the entire process in layman’s terms, made me feel comfortable, and was available anytime with any questions. Once the 401k transfer process was completed I was set up with Frank for purchasing my assets. This was where I was really inept. He could not tell me what to buy but guided me the best he was by law able to.

    It has been over 5 months since completion and I am much more knowledgeable. Even now, I would not change my assets percentage. I know it may not be the highest rate of return but given the current market and an overall unpleasant life experience with the stock market, my money is now safe. This company and the individuals therein have genuinely had my best interests at heart from the beginning. Completely satisfied!

    Having been a successful traditional IRA investor for nearly 40 yrs, it was very difficult for me to consider rolling over my IRA into a money metals IRA; however, given the current declining trajectory of our global economic affairs, I wanted to explore this option to protect my assets. From the first day, Matt ** provided me with outstanding customer care in this decision-making process. Never once did I feel pressure. He was very patient, kind, friendly, informative, and professional with me throughout the process and was very knowledgeable in this regard. I genuinely felt that he had my personal interests at heart. And I appreciate knowing that I can continue to call him at any time with any questions or concerns I might have regarding my money metals IRA in the future. He has always returned my calls and made me feel like I was his only customer that day. Thank you Patriot Gold and Matt ** for putting my mind at ease.

    Up until 2020 we were flying high with our 401K's and other investments. We've both been retired for a few years. We saved, planned well (or so we thought) and we had more than enough to enjoy a comfortable retirement and to pass on assets to family. Then came this word salad of an economic policy and we were concerned. We've been gold owners for quite a long time, but had never considered a gold IRA. While investment growth is still preferred, for us now maintaining and protecting our wealth is most important. I did quite a bit of research online and felt that Patriot Gold Group was a good match for us. We worked with Mike ** and he was there during the whole process. The instructions on how to move funds from a 401K to Patriot were excellent and their back room was very efficient. In fact, the only stumbling blocks we experienced were in moving funds out of a federal employee 401K! (Imagine that!) We highly recommend!

    While choosing Patriot Gold Group this year, it was from a decision considered over several years. Moving our IRA [with another bank] into gold/silver was a must for us. After researching the many vendors "out there", we chose PGG for their service, detail, info given, options available... And of course the fee schedule. While disappointed with myself for waiting too long to decide, I'm happy to have made this decision with PGG... And will remain with them permanently.

    After thinking about buying gold for several months, I called Patriot Gold to get some information. Being a novice I had a lot of questions and I had every one of them answered on my first call. I spoke with Jim ** for quite a while as he explained and answered each question. Jim was polite and thorough as he was explaining things to me. By the end of the call I felt I had found Patriot Gold the company I would feel most comfortable buying from. I have made several buys since that day, they have gone smoothly and exactly as planned. Trusting the company you deal with is a must.

    My rep Andy was very informative as it was my first time purchasing precious metals, and Patriot Gold also offered the no fee for life, 401(k) rollover, which helped with part of my decision making. If a precious metals account interest you I would definitely give Patriot Gold a look.
