IRA Approved Silver
Not all gold coins, proof coins, bars, and rounds are created equal. In order to be eligible, the products must meet a specific fineness requirement of .995, with the exception of American Eagles. However, there are many qualified precious metals that can be placed in a Gold IRA. Though IRAs were once limited to only holding American Eagle products, today, IRAs include all IRS-permitted gold, silver, platinum and palladium products. Thanks to the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 which expanded the precious metals holdings allowed in IRAs to include one, one-half, one-quarter or one-tenth ounce U.S. gold coins and one-ounce silver coins minted by the U.S. Treasury Department, along with certain foreign coins.

Note: The IRS rules regarding precious metal IRAs require that the precious metal held in the IRA meet certain fineness standards and be stored with an IRS-approved depository.
A depository is required for a precious metal IRA because the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regulations state that all precious metal held in a IRA must be stored in an IRS-approved depository. The purpose of using a depository is to ensure the safety and security of the assets in the precious metals IRA, and to provide an independent third-party storage solution for the precious metals.
The role of the depository is to hold and protect the precious metal investments, and to provide periodic statements and valuation reports to the custodian and the IRA owner. The depository is also responsible for the proper insurance and security of the precious metal, including any necessary measures to protect against theft, loss, or damage.
By using an IRS-approved depository, the assets in the retirement funds are kept separate from the custodian’s own assets and are protected in the event of bankruptcy or other financial difficulties. Additionally, having the precious metals held in a depository helps to ensure that the investments meet the individual retirement account rules and regulations for self directed IRA.
