Open an IRA Account
GETTING STARTED
Placing precious metals into your self-directed IRA can be a straightforward process. You may be able to transfer all or a portion of a Traditional, Roth or SEP IRA as well as roll over a previous 401k or 403b into a Gold IRA without incurring any taxes or penalties.
The IRS permits certain proof coins to be included in self-directed IRAs, provided they meet specific purity and storage requirements. These limited-mintage proof coins differ from bullion versions and may appeal to collectors due to factors like design and scarcity. Historically, proof coins have sometimes commanded higher premiums than bullion coins, though pricing varies by market conditions, demand, and product type.
Like semi-numismatic coins, proof coins are often valued based on factors such as mintage, scarcity, age, metal content, and overall demand. Proof coins in some cases, carry a premium over their metal content. To learn more about proof coins click the image below.
PROOF COIN AVAILABILITY
The United States government issues a limited number of proof coins each year and availability is subject to demand. Ask your Monetary Gold IRA specialist about availability.
One of our Precious Metals IRA Specialists can guide you through the general process of transferring or rolling over an eligible retirement account to a custodian that allows for self-directed IRAs with precious metals, such as Equity Trust, Kingdom Trust, Gold Star Trust Company, Entrust, and many others.
Set Up Your Account in Three Steps
STEP #1
Establish a self-directed Gold IRA. You are not required to work with a financial advisor to initiate a Gold IRA, and a representative can assist you with completing the application at no additional cost. Your account will take 48 to 72 hours to open after processing begins.
STEP #2
Fund your IRA by contributing directly or transferring funds from an existing qualified IRA or 401(k).
STEP #3
Acquire Precious Metals. After your account is funded, a specialist can assist with submitting a purchase order (choosing metals) and arranging for metals to be shipped to the approved depository. Upon arrival, your metals will be inspected, processed and insured. Then your IRA custodian will manage reporting, holdings, and any future distribution requests. You may also be able to monitor your account activity online.
