Exceptional Service and Expertise
True to reputation, American Hartford Gold sets a standard for professionalism and customer care in the industry. Brian Kurzweil, Michael Victoria and Katee Trinh each took the time to thoroughly explain every aspect of the recommended transactions, and walked me through the details with patience and clarity. It's rare to encounter professionals who are not only highly competent but also genuinely committed to ensuring their clients feel informed and supported every step of the way! I cannot thank you enough for your teams' willingness to make what could have been a complex process feel straightforward and reassuring.I am fully confident in the actions taken on my behalf and deeply grateful for the peace of mind they have provided. Warm regards, Chris Cook

Documented 89% markup on an IRA order
American Hartford Gold charged an 89% premium on a physical retirement IRA purchase, which stripped over $11,000 of principal value. A recent audit of Sales Order AHG00029221 from September 7, 2023, shows the price charged was $909.88 per coin for Gold Australian Wildlife 1/4-oz coins, while the gold spot price listed on their own invoice was $1,923.00 per ounce. A 1/4-oz gold coin at that spot price has a melt value of $480.75. Charging $909.88 for a $480.75 asset is an 89% markup. Recent attempts to resolve this massive discrepancy and seek restitution have been met with silence. Do not rely on verbal phone promises; demand written pricing breakdowns relative to spot price before signing anything.

Dani Harris in conjunction with…
Dani Harris in conjunction with Christian Gomez were instrumental in me purchasing more precious metals for my portfolio. Dani took the time to explain the spread and went over each item purchased. She spoke very clearly and was easy to understand. She appeared to have a genuine concern that I understood all that was gone over. She also made sure I knew which items were not able to be returned. She was very polite and knowledgeable.
Simple transaction
Philip explained the product that I bought. He answered all of my concerns and questions that I had.
I HAVE WATCHED ON TV THIS COMPANY…
I HAVE WATCHED ON TV THIS COMPANY TARGETING THE RETIRED PEOPLE.
QUOTE. "ARE YOU WORRIED....."
SO-OOOO I THINK YEARS AGO WHEN THE GOVERNMENT OK THE SALES OF GOLD TO THE PUBLIC. AND THE TV ADS SAID WE BUY GOLD. (DO NOT REMEMBER THE COMPANIES, OR THE PRICES OFFERED)
BUT GOLD PROCES TODAY IS BEING SOLD TO THE PUBLIC AT 4,000 AN OUNCE.
AND
THIS COMPANY ON MY TV IS FOCUSED ON THE RETIRED AND WORRY ABOUT YOUR FUTURE.
NO
NO I DID NOT FURTHER MY RESEARCH. BUT.!!!!! WHY ONLY FOCUSED ON THE ELDERLY TO BUY GOLD.
I JUST DON'T LIKE HOW THIS COMPANY "TARGETS" THE RETIRED......MY OPINION AND I THINK RED FLAGS.
YOU SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT GOLD WAY BACK WHEN IT WAS OPENED FOR THE PUBLIC TO BUY AT AROUND 900 AN OUNCE
NOW THE PRICE IS OVER 4,000. BE CAREFUL ELDERLY BE CAREFUL

First Time Buyer
I was connected with Adam Berman when I reached out to American Hartford Gold. I was a first time buyer in the precious metal market. Adam and his team at American Hartford Gold treated me with respect and professionalism as I navigated the process with them to make my first purchase.
Adam and his team provided excellent communication from the moment we connected until the order reached my door. I know that I can count on Adam and his team to deliver. I am eager to make my next order with them!
