EPiServer.Core.TypeMismatchException - While Retrieviing Catalog Details from Commerce Manager
It seems that the item that is referenced through "itemLink" is an instance of type "ProductContent" while your call to contentLoader
loader.Get<PreciousMetalsSKU>(itemLink, new LanguageSelector(language));
expect it to be an instance of PreciousMetalsSKU and apparantely cant ProductContent be casted to PreciousMetalsSKU.
I am not sure if itemLink always is expected to be an instance of PreciousMetalsSKU , if not you could use "as" operator to check like:
var productSKU = loader.Get<IContent>(itemLink, new LanguageSelector(language)) as PreciousMetalsSKU;
if (productSKU != null)
{
lineItem.ProductDescription = productSKU.DisplayName;
}

The answer from Johan is indeed correct, but one more note: for performance reason you should not load the Entry (especially with Full response group) - it is an heavy task. You can just load the Dto and get the Id from there - or even use ReferenceConverter to do that.
Later version of Commerce optimized that further and made the conversion from Code to Id a fast and lightweight task. For that reason you should upgrade to latest version if possible. 7.12 is almost 4 years old now.

Definately just call referenceConverter.GetContentLink(lineItem.Code, CatalogContentType.CatalogEntry), (i assume the use of lineItem.CurrencyCode in your example is a mistype).
If you really are only after line items that is PreciousMetalsSKU you can call loader.TryGet<PreciousMetalsSku>().

Code to retrieve Catalog Details:
string language = contact.PreferredLanguage;
var entry = CatalogContext.Current.GetCatalogEntry(lineItem.CurrencyCode, new CatalogEntryResponseGroup(CatalogEntryResponseGroup.ResponseGroup.CatalogEntryFull));
if (entry != null)();();
{
IContentLoader loader = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance
var referenceConverter = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance
ContentReference itemLink = referenceConverter.GetContentLink(entry.CatalogEntryId,
CatalogContentType.CatalogEntry, 0);
var productSKU = loader.Get(itemLink, new LanguageSelector(language));
if (productSKU != null)
{
lineItem.ProductDescription = productSKU.DisplayName;
}
}
