GOLD SILVER PLATINUM PALLADIUM

Silver

Silver we work with

The same standard applies: recognized sovereign mints and approved-refiner bars, each eligible for a self-directed IRA. Silver carries a higher premium over spot than gold and takes more space to store, which is worth discussing before you decide.

Availability varies with the market, and we do not publish prices here — metals pricing moves continuously, and any figure shown on a website is stale the moment it is written. A specialist quotes you the current premium over spot in writing, itemized, before you authorize anything. IRA eligibility refers to whether the IRS permits a product in a self-directed IRA; it is not a recommendation to buy it. See our Terms & Conditions.

Important disclosures

Sentry Bullion is a precious metals dealer. We are not a bank, trust company, IRS-approved custodian or non-bank trustee, broker-dealer, or registered investment adviser, and we do not provide investment, tax, or legal advice. Nothing on this site is a recommendation to buy or sell any product, and no communication with us creates a fiduciary relationship. Sentry Bullion is compensated through the sale of precious metals products.

Precious metals carry risk, including loss of principal. Prices fluctuate and holdings may be worth more or less than their original cost when sold. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Physical metals are generally less liquid than securities and are best considered over a multi-year horizon. Spot prices shown on this site are indicative only and are not a quote or an offer to transact; every purchase carries a dealer premium over spot, which is itemized and disclosed to you in writing before you authorize any transaction.

Self-directed IRA accounts are established with Rocket Dollar, an independent provider, and held by its regulated custody partner; metals are stored at an independent insured depository. Rocket Dollar and the depository set and bill their own setup, subscription, storage, and insurance fees, which Sentry Bullion does not mark up. Only bullion meeting IRS purity and eligibility requirements may be held in an IRA, home storage of IRA-owned metals is not permitted, and distributions may be taxable or subject to penalty. Consult your own qualified tax and legal advisors before making retirement account decisions.

Please note that although Sentry Bullion and its representatives are precious metals specialists, we are not licensed or registered investment advisers, attorneys, CPA's, or other financial service professionals. We do not give any tax, financial, legal or investment advice. Additionally, be aware that precious metals, like any investment, carry risk of loss and are not a suitable investment for everyone. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results and precious metals may appreciate, depreciate, or stay the same depending on a variety of factors. Anyone who considers purchasing Precious metals, Gold American Eagles, Proof Gold American Eagles, certified gold coins, as well as gold and silver bars should consider and carefully evaluate the associated risks and acquisition costs before making the investment, and you should always consult your financial and tax professional and carefully evaluate all risks associated with the acquisition of precious metals before making the investment. It is Sentry Bullion's view that precious metals should be considered a long-term investment, and that while you can sell your precious metals at any time, you should be prepared and willing to hold any purchased precious metals for several years before selling them. Sentry Bullion cannot guarantee, and makes no representation, that any metals purchased (i.e. .999 gold bars, .9999 silver bars, or any gold or silver coins) will appreciate at all or appreciate sufficiently to produce a profit above and beyond the markup/ commissions charged whether they are bought for direct delivery or inside of a precious metals IRA. The decision to purchase or sell precious metals with funds outside or inside of a Gold IRA or a Gold Backed IRA, and which precious metals to purchase or sell, are the customer's decision alone, and purchases and sales should be made subject to the customer's own research, prudence, and judgment. By accessing any Sentry Bullion content, you agree to be bound by the terms of service. For questions regarding this disclaimer or this website please contact us at 877-315-8817.
