What​ ​Precious​ ​Metals​ ​Can I​ ​Place​ ​In​ ​My​ ​Gold​ ​IRA? You​ ​have​ ​been​ ​following​ ​the​ ​markets​ ​for​ ​quite​ ​some​ ​time.​ ​You're​ ​thinking​ ​about​ ​retirement planning,​ ​but​ ​at​ ​the​ ​same​ ​time​ ​wondering​ ​what​ ​investment​ ​is​ ​best​ ​for​ ​protecting​ ​your​ ​future. After​ ​doing​ ​some​ ​research​ ​you​ ​decide​ ​to​ ​go​ ​with​ ​a​ ​physical​ ​precious​ ​metals​ ​investment​ ​by executing​ ​a​ ​401K​ ​rollover​ ​into​ ​a​ ​gold​ ​IRA.​ ​Now​ ​you​ ​must​ ​decide​ ​which​ ​precious​ ​metals​ ​are​ ​right for​ ​your​ ​gold​ ​IRA​ ​portfolio​ ​and​ ​determine​ ​whether​ ​or​ ​not​ ​they​ ​are​ ​permitted.​ ​A​ ​Gold​ ​IRA​ ​can also​ ​be​ ​referred​ ​to​ ​as​ ​a​ ​Self​ ​Directed​ ​IRA,​ ​Gold​ ​401K,​ ​and​ ​a​ ​Roth​ ​IRA. Prior​ ​to​ ​1997,​ ​rules​ ​and​ ​regulations​ ​permitted​ ​only​ ​American​ ​Gold​ ​and​ ​Silver​ ​Eagles​ ​to​ ​be placed​ ​within​ ​a​ ​Gold​ ​IRA.​ ​However,​ ​the​ ​passage​ ​of​ ​the​ ​Tax​ ​Payer​ ​Relief​ ​Act​ ​of​ ​1997​ ​made​ ​it possible​ ​to​ ​diversify​ ​a​ ​gold​ ​401k​ ​amongst​ ​many​ ​different​ ​precious​ ​metals.​ ​Current​ ​regulations now​ ​permit​ ​the​ ​placement​ ​of​ ​gold​ ​bullion​ ​coins​ ​and​ ​bars,​ ​silver​ ​bullion​ ​coins​ ​and​ ​bars,​ ​as​ ​well​ ​as platinum​ ​and​ ​palladium​ ​in​ ​Gold​ ​IRA​ ​portfolios. One​ ​very​ ​popular​ ​IRA​ ​gold​ ​investment​ ​is​ ​the​ ​American​ ​Eagle​ ​Gold​ ​bullion​ ​coin.​ ​This​ ​particular coin​ ​was​ ​first​ ​introduced​ ​to​ ​America​ ​in​ ​1986​ ​to​ ​compete​ ​with​ ​the​ ​Canadian​ ​Maple​ ​Leaf,​ ​another gold​ ​bullion​ ​coin​ ​that​ ​is​ ​permissible​ ​in​ ​a​ ​gold​ ​401K.​ ​The​ ​Austrian​ ​Philharmonic,​ ​American Buffalo,​ ​and​ ​Australian​ ​Kangaroo​ ​gold​ ​coins​ ​are​ ​also​ ​permissible​ ​investments. Restricted​ ​IRA​ ​gold​ ​investments​ ​include​ ​the​ ​Krugerrand,​ ​Mexican​ ​50​ ​Peso​ ​gold​ ​bullion​ ​coin,​ ​as well​ ​as​ ​rare​ ​coins​ ​such​ ​as​ ​the​ ​liberty​ ​head,​ ​Saint​ ​Gaudens,​ ​Swiss​ ​Franc,​ ​and​ ​British​ ​Sovereign to​ ​name​ ​but​ ​a​ ​few. Having​ ​outperformed​ ​all​ ​other​ ​precious​ ​metals​ ​investments​ ​in​ ​2010,​ ​silver​ ​investing​ ​is​ ​more popular​ ​than​ ​ever.​ ​American​ ​Eagle​ ​Silver​ ​Bullion​ ​coins,​ ​the​ ​Australian​ ​Kookaburra,​ ​Austrian Vienna​ ​Philharmonic,​ ​Canadian​ ​Maple​ ​Leaf,​ ​and​ ​Mexican​ ​Libertad​ ​silver​ ​bullion​ ​coin​ ​are​ ​all permissible​ ​in​ ​a​ ​Self​ ​Directed​ ​IRA.

Silver​ ​bars​ ​and​ ​privately​ ​minted​ ​silver​ ​rounds​ ​that​ ​are​ ​produced​ ​by​ ​manufacturers​ ​accredited​ ​by the​ ​NYSE​ ​or​ ​Comex​ ​are​ ​also​ ​permissible​ ​investments. Finally​ ​we​ ​have​ ​platinum​ ​and​ ​Palladium.​ ​Permissible​ ​Platinum​ ​investments​ ​include​ ​the American​ ​Eagle​ ​platinum​ ​coin,​ ​the​ ​Australian​ ​Koala,​ ​Canadian​ ​Maple​ ​Leaf,​ ​and​ ​Isle​ ​of​ ​Man Noble​ ​platinum​ ​coin.​ ​Palladium​ ​investments​ ​include​ ​those​ ​bars​ ​and​ ​coins​ ​that​ ​are​ ​produced​ ​by a​ ​national​ ​mint. The​ ​Self​ ​Directed​ ​IRA​ ​or​ ​Gold​ ​IRA​ ​is​ ​a​ ​powerful​ ​tool​ ​for​ ​diversifying​ ​your​ ​investment​ ​portfolio and​ ​protecting​ ​your​ ​future.​ ​It​ ​can​ ​be​ ​setup​ ​with​ ​ease​ ​as​ ​long​ ​as​ ​your​ ​current​ ​401K​ ​meets​ ​certain requirements.
