Once you purchase platinum bars, expect them to resist corrosion and tarnish. If you store the bars in their assay packaging, keeping them sealed, the bars will maintain a new appearance indefinitely. Avoid handling these bars directly, as this can cause small surface marks. Use gloves if you have to touch them.
Whether you buy smaller or larger bars will depend on your unique goals. Smaller options are convenient when you’re selling a portion of your portfolio. Larger bars typically have lower per-ounce premiums. Many investors begin with single-ounce bars and then scale up over time as they grow their portfolios.
The platinum bars you purchase may become more in demand. As automakers seek an alternative to palladium since it has become costlier during the past several years, many are using platinum instead in their catalytic converters. The trend of substituting platinum may increase the demand for platinum during the next 10 years, which may positively impact platinum bars’ value in the long term.
More investors in the United States are using these bars in self-directed IRAs to diversify their portfolios. Platinum bars satisfy the Internal Revenue Service’s purity requirements, making them eligible for inclusion in IRAs. These bars are also simple to store in a depository, which has led them to become the preferred format among precious metals retirement account holders.
