Home : About Me

My Nana is the one to blame for my obsession with coins. When I was a kid, she sat me and my siblings down at the dinner table to sort through rolls of pennies. She had given each of us one of those blue Whitman Folders to fill in all the empty spots we didn't have pennies for. She noticed that I had a passion for it, and gave me this 1909 VDB penny from her collection that I keep on my desk as a reminder of where it all started.

In 2009, I got into Precious Metals and bought my first 4 ozs of Silver, two Engelhard Bars and two A-Mark Rounds, all of which I still have today. Since I was on a budget, I would buy Precious Metals randomly and still hoarded pennies as I found them.

In 2016, I got heavy into Precious Metals and started an Instagram page to showcase some of my stash. I started gaining followers and, eventually, gained the trust of the community and started to sell a few things.

In 2018, I read the book Rich Dad Poor Dad and it motivated me to start my own business. Since I had a following on Instagram, I decided to rebrand myself and use it as my sales platform.

Since then, I've made thousands of sales and have met a lot of cool folks along the way. While I was on active duty in the Military I only did this part time, and hoped to make this a full time job when I retire.

Now that I'm retired I decided to give the sales part a rest for a while and focus on stacking and helping folk when they have questions. I do still sell and trade from time to time but it's not my major focus.
