Platinum Purchase Formats

There are a number of physical formats you can consider when buying platinum:


  • Platinum Coins: Some coins have a "rarity" component associated with them that can add to their value. Coins are a great option but avoid purchasing based on rarity unless you really know what you're doing
  • Platinum Jewelry: Investing in jewelry is another option. You'll take craftsmansip, design, and purity into account when valuing these items.
  • Platinum Bars: Bars are typically quite pure, and stamped with the name of the production refinery. Value is directly aligned to the amount of metal in the bar.
  • Platinum ETFs: These are funds designed to follow the spot price of platinum. It doesn't mean you own anything physically, and isn't an effective hedge against total system collapse (but can be a good investment vehicle for some).

Tips For Buying Platinum In California

Keep Some Platinum Nearby - But Not Too Much

Governments around the world have seized noble metals from time to time, so keeping your entire stash locally could be a bad idea depending on where you live.


Safe jurisdictions like Switzerland should be considered when you get to the point of holding a significant (tens of thousands of dollars worth generally) amount.

Maintain Direct Control Of Your Platinum

If you're not buying an huge amount of platinum, you should aim to maintain direct control over it at your home or other property.


If you're investing heavily, to the point where you need a safe alternative location to store it, be sure to go somewhere like Switzerland with strong property rights. It's key to make sure they can't lend or hedge using your stash.

Avoid The Banking System

Physical precious metals like platinum are a hedge to the traditional banking system. In a crisis, if the system collapses, it may very well take your property down with it (if it can).


If there is a run on the banks, having your platinum under your direct control means they can't confiscate it, block access to it, or have loaned it out in a leveraged fashion.

Know And Comply With The Law

It's important to comply with the law when it comes to buying platinum, and knowing what they are goes a long way.


Under a certain dollar amount, there's no need to declare (which may be attractive to some), but once you hit a threshold you will need to (and should) declare your holdings.
