ABOUT US

We answer the question: which Gold and Silver dealers can you trust?

We are an independent research publication covering the precious metals retirement industry. We don't sell gold. We evaluate the companies that do.

Our Story

Bullion Verdict and Simple Metal Investing were founded after our editor-in-chief seeing a family member get talked into buying junk coins and put onto a phone list used by scammers. The experience exposed how few resources existed for ordinary retirement savers trying to do their homework.

Today, our small team of researchers publishes this content for your convenience. Each opinion is based on details such as transparent fees, responsive customer service, depositories, complaints, and buy-back commitments.
