In this episode of Hard Money Matters on AM 930, host Kyle Warren and John Maben, owner of Pegasus Coin and Jewelry, explore the intricacies of coin collecting and precious metals. Maben highlights undervalued assets like platinum, which is significantly cheaper than gold, and pre-1933 U.S. gold coins, which offer value due to their low numismatic premium amid rising gold prices. He emphasizes the subjective nature of coin grading, noting variations among major grading services like NGC and PCGS, and advises against grading most coins due to high costs. Maben also discusses branding in precious metals, explaining that globally recognized manufacturers like Pamp and Royal Canadian Mint enhance liquidity compared to lesser-known brands. With economic uncertainty driving interest in tangible assets, Maben encourages informed decision-making with expert guidance, urging listeners to call Pegasus at 941-725-6100 or visit pegavault.com for evaluations.
