Our Favorite Gold Investment Company Reviews

Here are our reviews of the best gold investment companies in 2022 to help you choose the right one for your needs. We’ve included alternatives for all budgets and whether you are looking to invest in an IRA or outside an IRA through a direct purchase. All three companies deals with both gold & silver in the form of bars, bulllion & coins.

#1. Augusta Precious Metals

Augusta Precious Metals is a great gold investment company that is best suited for the “bigger investors” as their minimum purchase starts at $50,000 and up. There is no limit on how much gold & silver you can purchase with this company.

Augusta Specifications

Products & Services:	Gold/Silver IRA, Gold/Silver direct purchase — plus, outstanding precious metals education
Strong point:	Unique, one-on-one educational web conference designed by Harvard-trained economist
Endorsed by:	Quarterback and multimillionaire Joe Montana & his financial team
Support:	Account lifetime service and help avoiding this unregulated industry’s scams & gimmicks
Minimum purchase:	IRA $50,000, Direct purchase $50,000
Our rating:	(4.9 / 5)

Augusta Precious Metals is an awesome gold investment company and is our top choice since it is the only company with a 1-one-1 web conference. With the press of a button, you can book a day and time for your gold & silver investing education were you are able to interact with a Harvard-trained precious metals expert.

The only “drawback” with this company is that it is not for “smaller investors” as minimum investment amount start at $50k, no matter if you want to purchase gold & silver inside an IRA or through a direct purchase (outside IRA).

#2. Goldco Precious Metals

Goldco is your best overall gold investment company as it suits both smaller and bigger investors, their IRA deals starts at $20k and a direct purchase starts as low as $3,5k. There is no limit on how much precious metals you can purchase.

Support:	No pushy sales representatives (this is a HUGE plus, at least in our book)
Minimum purchase:	IRA $20,000, Direct purchase $3,500
Our rating:	(4.9 / 5)

For the overall gold & silver investor we have selected Goldco as the best choice, it doesn´t matter if you are a high-networth investor or if you are on a smaller budget, this company works with both clientels. Extra plus points for the professional approach of their reps!

There is a reason they have been the fastest growing firm in the gold industry for the last couple of years, everything with this company is super professional & right now they got a 10% back in free silver offer, not sure how long it will be available but at the time we write this it is still live.

#3. American Hartford Gold

 

This company got the lowest minimum purchase limit for an IRA and also outside an IRA. In fact, they have no minimums at all, so this solution would work for any investor on any budget no matter if you are looking to invest inside or outside of an IRA.

American Hartford Gold Specifications

Products & Services:	Gold/Silver IRA, Gold/Silver direct purchase — plus, wide selection of info & educational material
Strong point:	Lowest IRA minimum in the industry (!)
Endorsed by:	Bill O´Reilly, Rick Harrison and MANY MORE!
Minimum purchase:	IRA $0, Direct purchase $0
Support:	Phone and e-mail support
Our rating:	(4.5 / 5)

 

A lot of educational material on their website, books, videos, interviews and blog posts. The biggest reason we placed this company on our top 3 list is due to their low IRA minimum purchase amount as we have never seen a lower one in the industry, and we have reviewed 120+ companies!

Conclusion

To conclude, though we’d recommend checking out the company that make most sense to you, and the one that suits your particular needs the best. They got different strong points all 3 of them and worth to mention is that there is no max roof on how much you can invest with any of the companies.

If you are a High-Net-Worth kind of person, then I would highly recommend that you check out both Augusta and also Goldco to see what company make the most sense to you, and where you get the best bang for your buck so to speak. They both got some pretty awesome benefits, in the end, it depends on your particular preferences. Who knows, you might end up investing with both of them!

However, depending on your budget, at least Augusta, might be “out of your league” when it comes to their minimum purchase limits, that´s why we made that very clear in the tables above on the minimum purchase requirements on each of the companies.

In short, if you can only invest less than $20k (in an IRA), then American Hartford Gold is your only alternative. If you want to do a direct purchase (outside an IRA) and only want to buy for, let´s say $3,500 then Goldco is your only alternative, yeah you get the point, hopefully it is clear and understandable by looking at the tables on each and every firm above.

So we hope that helps narrow down some of the best gold investment companies available, no matter if you are looking to invest through an IRA or through a direct cash purchase. We´ll continue to monitor any new companies that come up and add to this list if we see any that looks promising.
