What Gold.com does
Gold.com, Inc. (NYSE: GOLD; formerly A-Mark Precious Metals, rebranded December 2025) is a vertically integrated alternative assets platform operating in the precious metals and collectibles market since 1965. The company combines minting and refining (Sunshine Minting in Nevada, Idaho, and Shanghai; Liberty Refining), logistics and storage (A-M Global Logistics, Transcontinental Depository Services), wholesale trading, collateralized lending (Collateral Finance Corporation), rare coin auctions (Stack's Bowers Galleries), and a portfolio of 20+ direct-to-consumer retail brands including JM Bullion, Goldline, Monex, SilverGoldBull, LPM, GOVMINT, and Atkinsons. It serves approximately 4 million individual investors and collectors globally across the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Europe, Hong Kong, and Singapore, alongside institutional clients and sovereign mints on the wholesale side.
The platform monetizes primarily through retail and wholesale precious metals sales priced at spot plus premium markups, ancillary logistics and storage fees, interest income on collateralized loans, and auction commissions on rare coins and collectibles. Recent strategic moves include the April 2026 full acquisition of Sunshine Minting for $1.18 billion (raising production capacity above 3 million ounces per week), a February 2026 $150 million strategic investment from Tether for approximately 12% ownership to integrate physical gold with Tether's XAU₮ tokenized stablecoin, and ongoing DTC brand roll-ups (Spectrum Group, Pinehurst Coins, Monex). The company reported approximately $11 billion in annual revenue, with a high-revenue, low-margin model sensitive to commodity prices. Gold.com is incorporated in Delaware, headquartered in Costa Mesa, California, and trades on the NYSE under the ticker GOLD following its December 2025 listing transfer from Nasdaq.
