In this engaging episode of Hard Money Matters on AM 930 The Answer, host Kyle Warren and coin expert John Mabin, owner of Pegasus Coin and Jewelry in Bradenton, dive into the world of collectible coins and precious metals. They address common misconceptions about coin collecting, such as the belief that touching a coin makes it no longer uncirculated or that online prices always reflect a coin’s true value. John clarifies the difference between uncirculated and proof coins and explains how rising gold prices impact the jewelry trade, emphasizing Pegasus’s role in buying gold for its metal value at competitive prices. The discussion also covers the benefits of larger transactions, the absence of legal limits on gold ownership in most free countries, and the concept of cost averaging for investments. Additionally, they explore the historical significance of coins, including ancient standardization in coin production and the challenges of spotting counterfeits. Listeners are invited to visit Pegasus Coin and Jewelry for free verbal estimates and expert advice, with a reminder to tune in next Saturday at noon for more insights.
