In this engaging episode of Hard Money Matters, host Kyle Warren and coin expert John Maybin, owner of Pegasus Coin and Jewelry in Bradenton, dive into the intricate world of buying, selling, and collecting coins and precious metals. John shares his seasoned perspective, drawing from over four decades in the industry, offering practical advice on when to buy or sell—and when to hold back. He discusses scenarios where he might discourage customers from making transactions, such as selling inherited gold without a clear need for funds or purchasing beyond one’s financial means. The conversation also covers the realities of handling common wheat pennies, the minimal impact of penny retirement on the collector’s market, and the logistics of managing large or small transactions, including special orders and the associated risks. John expresses skepticism about the ego-driven nature of coin registry systems like NGC and PCGS, advocating for collecting based on personal enjoyment rather than competitive overpaying. Packed with insights, the episode emphasizes informed decision-making, customer service, and the nuances of the precious metals trade, inviting listeners to send questions for future discussions
