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.

    The 401K through the company that I work for is managed by BlackRock Financial, whom I do not agree with their business practices. I was looking to move my money into an IRA, and with additional concerns about the stability of the dollar, I wanted to look at precious metals. Through my research of different precious metals companies, I Came Upon the Patriot Gold Group. I contacted Patriot gold and was connected with Andy **. Andy took the time to go through the various options that they have available and to answer all my questions. I felt confident in moving my money into a gold IRA after talking with him. He was very polite and personable and gave me suggestions to consider.

    Through his guidance I was able to get my 401k moved over into a precious metals Ira with Patriot gold. He has serviced my account very well and has promptly responded to all my calls and emails. He has helped guide me though never telling me what I should do. I have a unique situation and he has been very understanding and helpful. I would recommend him to anyone looking to better understand precious metals and their options in investing in them.

    Jack Hanney and Patriot Gold Group are top notch, and here’s why! Back in 2020, I decided it was time to convert my IRA and 401k into precious metals. The idea of moving my personal retirement funds from a traditional portfolio into metals was a big decision, so I did my careful research and due diligence. After watching how articulate and knowledgeable Jack was in all of his major news interviews, I contacted Patriot Gold Group. How often do you get a call back from the CEO of any company? Well, Jack, the CEO himself, contacted me, and we connected right away! His enlightening conversation immediately gave me the “go” signal to move forward.

    From our initial planning session in 2020 and fast forward to today, Jack consistently provides an EXCEPTIONAL customer experience. Jack is seasoned professional, responsive, energetic, efficient, and patient―going above and beyond every step of the way. Most importantly, Jack is always available to meet my needs. Along with being an expert in his field, Jack is a delightful person who operates with strong guiding principles and values of honesty and integrity—all wrapped up in a great sense of humor. I SO appreciate Jack and his stellar team, including Charlie and Liz. I highly recommend Patriot Gold Group, bar none. Thank you, Jack, for representing me with your unmatched expertise and brilliant program. Now, I have a diversified portfolio to achieve my long-term financial goals and financial stability. Much appreciation and continued success!! Gigi

    In 2022, my IRA lost over 20% of its value. I decided I needed to move what cash I had into a more stable investment. I heard many good things about Patriot Gold and I must say, the name “Patriot” was a drawing factor for me. My family has always had family members in the U.S. Military, and there is no greater service to America! We are all American Patriots! I called Patriot Gold one day on the summer of 2022, and Ron ** answered. I feel so fortunate he picked up the phone! I had so many questions and he answered them expertly and with layman’s words I could understand. He sent me materials for me to read, study and to help me make my decision. Ron did not pressure me in the least, but told me to take my time so I feel comfortable with whatever decision I make. Also telling me to call anytime with any and all questions. Do you know he tells me to call any time including weekends?!

    Before I transferred anything, my husband and I had several calls and learning sessions with Ron to make sure we understood everything about investing in Gold. I moved my money to Patriot Gold in summer of 2022. Our entire experience with Ron was the BEST experience with I ever had investing. The entire time, Ron was a wonderful gentleman, patient, considerate and informative. Ron NEVER pressured us.. He has always had a spirit of servitude, educating us and guiding us through the process of moving to a Gold IRA. After a few times on the phone, I felt he was a friend I’d known forever.! He seems to be intuitive to others personalities, giving him the unique ability to “personally” relate to another person.

    We invested and Ron stays in touch at least once a month, sending us great articles and always offering his help for any questions we might have. I will tell you Ron had some problems explaining things to us since we were 74 Years old at the time! You can only imagine the genuine patience he had for us! Frank helped guide us during the purchase and was so nice, professional and knowledgeable in guiding me through the purchase. Frank is a star employee and he is not only a very fine man, but also a great employee of Patriot Gold.

    To end this novel, I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Ron. If I call, he promptly returns my call. A few months ago, my grandson wanted to invest in gold and Ron kindly took the time to talk to him. I appreciate that more than I can say. My grandson is only 23 and only had several thousand dollars. He wanted to invest in gold, so I sent him to Ron just in case you all have any type of program for “young investors” who want to grow what they have saved. Ron was great with him, kind, informative and gave him some good advice about Patriot Gold investing. Ron is always attentive and patient on calls, like he had all the time in the world to talk to me and help me.

    I was a Director in a large hospital before I retired, I believe after more than 25 years in management, I can tell the qualities of a good employee versus a mediocre employee. Ron is a GREAT employee, a real Rock Star for Patriot Gold, He is an ultimate gentleman, honest, kind, personal, like a best friend for that is how I think of him, knowledgeable, ethical, fun and a very respectful man. We have some fun laughs at times, which I love, because I truly think of Ron as a dear friend. Patriot Gold is VERY LUCKY to have Ron ** as a valuable employee. I hope this review is helpful to Ron in his career. Ron is a treasure and worthy of receiving recognition for not only the great job he does, but also because he puts his heart and soul into his work and offers it to his clients. Both qualities, sadly are a rare commodity in these times.

    When rolling over some 401k money into a precious metals IRA, I decided on Patriot Gold. They offered a no depository fee account with a minimum deposit which seemed to serve me better than getting the perks that competitors offered as the fees can add up over time. I intend to keep this account longterm and add more money into it. Liz with Patriot Gold helped me with the setup. She was very patient with me when I called with additional questions. She also made certain that I understood the directions to get started and offered clear instructions along with walking me through the process.

    We set up my account with Equity Trust Co. which is where the funds to make metals purchase through Patriot Gold must go. There was a delay of several weeks in receiving the funds from my TSP account (the federal employee equivalent of a 401k). That was a problem with TSP not Patriot Gold Group. When I finally received a check from them, I went to fund my account. I called Patriot Gold and learned that Liz went on vacation while I was waiting for my funds but was promptly transferred to Kristen and Jacob to assist in transferring funds and making purchases. I remember talking to both Kristen and Jacob several times with questions concerning DocuSigns , account numbers etc. Both were top top-notch.

    I made my purchases with help from Kristen. Again she was informative and patient. Tonight I spoke with a customer service rep named Laura to inquire about adding a contingent beneficiary to my account. She immediately emailed both Liz and Kristen to look into it for me and call me back about it as they are my reps. I know they will contact me quickly and address this with excellence. They always do so. Thank you, Patriot Gold Group.

    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 wanted to thank the Patriot Gold (PG) Team for supporting my metals investment strategy. I had great confidence in knowing that the PG Support Team was always available via phone or email. Responses were prompt and spot on. It's hard to find vendors in this arena where you know your best interest is their goal. I never walked away from interactions with PG that caused me frustration or worry. Lastly, without PG guidance, I wouldn't have been able to significantly grow my holdings.

Excellent combined communication with both as I was getting an excellent lesson on the gold market and the PATRIOT GOLD GROUP.

    As an inexperienced investor in precious metals, I was very nervous. Patriot Gold representative Kristen ** helped me feel secure in both buying and selling by educating me in a very professional and supported manner. The process was streamlined with protocols that clearly outlined the steps for purchasing and receiving my metals and for selling. Not only did Patriot Gold take the worry out of investment they absolutely exceeded my expectations in professionalism.
