About the U.S. Mint Authorized Purchaser Program

The U.S. Mint Authorized Purchaser Program is the official system through which the United States Mint efficiently distributes its precious metal bullion coins (gold, silver, platinum, and palladium) to the global market. The Mint does not sell these bullion coins directly to the public, but rather through a select network of approved, independent distributors.
Role of Authorized Purchasers (APs)
    • Primary Distributors: APs act as primary distributors for newly struck U.S. Mint bullion products.
    • Create a Two-Way Market: These firms are required to maintain a continuous two-way market, buying and selling U.S. Mint bullion coins to wholesalers, financial institutions, and the public, which ensures liquidity and widespread availability.
    • Competitive Pricing: The network of APs helps foster a competitive market that benefits consumers by providing a variety of purchasing options and competitive pricing
  • Assume Distribution Costs: APs are responsible for all aspects of distribution, including security, transport, and customer service, allowing the U.S. Mint to focus on production.
How to Become an Authorized Purchaser
Becoming a U.S. Mint AP requires meeting strict financial and professional criteria. Key qualifications include:
  • Financial Standing: A firm must have a minimum tangible net worth of at least $10 million (or $25 million for Gold/Platinum AP status) for three consecutive years and pass independent financial audits.
  • Market Presence: Applicants must demonstrate a strong, active presence in the precious metals market with sufficient working capital to support high-volume, continuous trading.
  • Minimum Orders: APs must agree to specific minimum order quantities when purchasing from the Mint (e.g., 25,000 ounces for silver, 1,000 ounces for gold).
  • Compliance: Firms must agree to the Mint’s terms and conditions, which may include embargo agreements for new releases and compliance with policies on returns and household order limits.
Current Authorized Purchasers
As of late 2025, some of the approved U.S. Mint Authorized Purchasers include A-Mark Precious Metals, Inc., American Precious Metals Exchange (APMEX), Coins & Things, Inc. (CNT), Dillon Gage Inc. of Dallas, Fidelitrade, Inc., Jack Hunt Coin Broker, Inc., Manfra, Tordella, & Brookes, Inc.
