Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”) was previously the principal accountant for A-Mark Precious Metals, Inc. (“A-Mark”). On May 18, 2015, BDO resigned as the principal accountants for A-Mark.

The audit report of BDO on the consolidated financial statements of A-Mark Precious Metals, Inc. and subsidiaries as of and for the year ended June 30, 2014, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, and the interim periods from July 1, 2014 through May 18, 2015, there were no: (1) disagreements with BDO on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement, or (2) reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S‑K).
