Segregated Storage
Gold IRA Glossary
A storage option where your specific coins and bars are kept separate from other customers' metals, often in a dedicated space labeled with your account. When you take a distribution or sell, you receive the exact items you originally purchased. Segregated storage typically costs more per year than commingled storage.
