Not all precious metals products are approved for an IRA. To qualify as an IRA-approved product, precious metals must meet minimum fineness levels mentioned above.

Any products falling outside of these ranges, excluding American Gold Eagles, are not approved for IRA contributions. Examples of non-approved precious metals products include pre-1933 gold, gold Krugerrands, and 90% US silver coins.
