Well, Birch has been evidently pushing coins with high premiums under a legal loophole called "premium bullion" . The "twin maple leaf" seems to be a common one and most recently the "papa new guinea". Some reports are saying they were charged almost 45%. If you buy fro birch ask for a quote on 1oz gold abr and 10oz silver bars. When you buy demand a email before buying showing what % you were charged on every piece of metals. Do not pay over 5%. Here is a review from an actual customer before Birch has the review taken down
\-"After this review I received a call from a supervisor at Birch Gold Group who attempted to resolve the matter. On 5/28/25 as seen below they attempted to sell me the "rare fixed mintage coin" at $1288 and 2 days later they agreed to buy back my coins at $817.38! A little thievery? Only to continually try to tell you how rare and valuable the coin is to yet not have any value? They escalated the situation to the COO who disquised herself as a "Supervisor" who gave the same slimey shpeel the others did on the value of the rare coin. As she was talking I was growing more frustrated and got off the call. She emailed a possible resolution which was what I felt was below what it should have been. I emailed back what I hoped for she began to use very common sales and shame tactics to avoid the fair resolution. Additionally, I have reached out to Lance Wallnau who was one who referred me to BGG.. For those who are new to gold investing, THIS GROUP IS FRAUDULENT AND WILL BAIT AND SWITCH! When you begin you will think you are purchasing Boullion and then you'll be sold a "rare fixed mintage coin" that will be BEYOND OVER INFLATED!5.25.25
BUYER BEWARE
Being new at gold investing, I have invested with Birch twice. The first time I didn't know better so I just transitioned my entire retirement. Now I have learned more and went to add to it as an annual SEP IRA. After completing the transaction, I realized they sold me .25 ounce gold coins at over $1288.45 when the cost of gold is $3315 an ounce! And the coin is not even a known coin! This company is a fraud! I will now be researching what they actually sold me when I carried over my retirement account!
