US Mint Sales: One Ounce Proof Gold and Silver Eagles Jump Get Yours At Cost

US Mint Sales: One Ounce Proof Gold and Silver Eagles Jump

Posted: 26 Jul 2011 12:41 PM PDT

In the previous report, many collectors seemed to focus on numismatic products with gold content in advance of an anticipated price increase. This week, buyers shifted their focus to certain silver products as the market price of silver exceeded the $40 mark.
The 2011 Proof Silver Eagle recorded sales of 133,420 units, the highest weekly figure in three weeks. The increased number of coins ordered may have been driven by both the higher market price of silver and the recent removal of the household ordering limit. The Proof Silver Eagles were priced by the US Mint based on a market price of silver of $37.50 per ounce, compared to the current price of nearly $41 per ounce. An initial ordering limit of 100 units per household was initially in place, before the limit was removed on July 15. Total sales of the 2011 Proof Silver Eagle have now reached 593,461.
The September 11 National Silver Medals saw a large increase in sales. Across the “W” and “P” mint marked versions, the total number of units sold for the week was 16,488. This compares to only 2,929 units sold in the previous period. The one ounce silver medals are priced at $56.95 each, which includes a surcharge of $10 per medal payable to the beneficiary organization.
Another stand out in the latest sales report is the one ounce 2011 Proof Gold Eagle, which added 4,511 units. This brings the sales total to 24,581 out of the maximum product limit of 30,000.
The full US Mint numismatic product sales report appears below. The figures are compiled through July 24, 2011. The first number column represents total sales through the reporting date, and the second number column represents the change in sales since the last report. Products with sales followed by an asterisk (*) are no longer available from the United States Mint. Currently available US Mint products can be found online at http://catalog.usmint.gov/

Modern Issue Graded Coins Numismatics New Preservation of Wealth

click here

Numismatics    There are several areas of numismatics that are outside the scope of the gold and silver market and we'll leave those areas out of this discussion.  For now I'll cover the area of numismatics that involves collecting graded coins.  I'm sure you've noticed how many time slots on the television these days are filled with shows selling coins?  There are several different types of graded coins that can be collected and given the current economic conditions there is one area of numismatics that has the most potential for appreciation should things continue in the direction they have been going.  Given the recommendations of my mentors and experts, at this time, the other two should be avoided. Let's discuss three classes of such coins:

1. Older, rare coins.
2. Commemorative coins
3. Modern issue graded coins
4. Non-graded bullion coins

Before we get into discussions about each let's talk for a minute about how the price of a numismatic coin is calculated.

Numismatic coins have 3 layers of cost built into their price:

1. The metal content
2. The numismatic premium
3. The dealer profit

Of the three layers it is best to minimize #2 and completely eliminate #3.  If you know  how and where to buy at wholesale you can do that...more on this later. 

The metal content - When purchasing numismatic coins with the hope of having an asset that increases in value it is safest to only deal in coins that are pure silver or gold.  I didn't understand this when I first began my collection and collected many coins that were a mix of various metals and while many of these coins were quite nostalgic they are of little value when measured for their silver or gold content.   Stick with silver or gold coins that are pure.  

The numismatic premium –  This is the premium placed on the coin for it's rarity, age and grade.  The key to minimizing this premium while still acquiring an asset that can have significant appreciation based on the metal content is to avoid rare, aged coins. 

Grading Services  - To establish the value of a numismatic coin, coins are graded by grading services.  The top four grading services are: ICG, ANACS, PCGS and NGC.  Each service follows the standards of the Sheldon scale of grading where each coin is rated based on specific characteristics for the given coin.  A perfect MS70 grade can sometimes be subjective however when a coin is graded that receives this designation it can achieve a significant numismatic premium based on rarity and age.  

Dealer profits – This is premium the dealer must place on the coin to cover their overhead and create an income.  Profits on numismatic coins can typically range from 15% to over 100%.

Older, Rare Coins These coins are the opposite of modern issue graded coins which we'll discuss shortly.  These are coins that are typically 20 or more years old.  As time goes on there are less and less coins that have been kept in perfect condition or have not been in circulation and so they become more rare and begin to gain quite a bit of numismatic premium.  In tough economic times, many experts believe that these coins while beautiful and nostalgic, will not hold their value.

In good economic times some coins can be worth many, many times the value of the metal however, it is the opinion of many experts that these premiums will become less important and it will be more about the metal content as economic times change. 

Commemorative Coins   Be very careful here.  Many of the commemorative coins that you see advertised on TV and in magazines are a complete waste of money.  Some of these are flat out scams.  Many of these coins are only plated with various grades of gold and silver and are far from pure.  Almost 99% of all the counterfeit coins are counterfeit numismatics and commemoratives ... they are seldom bullion coins. 

Plus...if you need to sell the coins...who the heck wants them and is willing to pay anything for them?  When you need to sell some coins... you want coins that are instantly recognized as the real thing.  The best way to meet this instant recognition is to purchase coins produced by the US Mint. My advice, forget about commemorative coins and invest your money in the "real thing".

No one likes to think about it but if things get really tough in our country as some experts and economist are now predicting, the dollar crashes, unemployment soars, many more banks fail and things go from bad to worse...and we are forced to use our gold and/or silver coins to buy, barter or trade with....what do you think will be the most important at that time:  (A) The fact that you have a 1 ounce silver American Eagle that is pegged to be worth the current spot price of silver plus a small premium.... or (B) The fact that you have a 1 ounce Morgan silver dollar that is very rare and at one time carried a numismatic premium of a thousand dollars above the price of the metal itself? 

Do you think at a time like that....when you really need the money...the person you are exchanging it with is really going to care about the rarity of the coin that much?   Do you think the numismatic coin will maintain its same numismatic premium in bad times... as it maintained in good times?  That's for you to answer.

Modern Issue Graded Coins   Modern issue graded silver and gold coins are a rapidly growing class of numismatic coins. They currently represent the majority of coins being graded by the top grading services.  These coins are typically less than ten years old with many millions of coins in circulation.  The most in demand coins in this class are those receiving the designation MS70.  Modern issue graded coins are a simple and safe way to participate in numismatics.  Because of their age and abundant quantities, they typically carry a low numismatic premium, thus limiting your down side risk.  These assets tend to appreciate over time and are valued by collectors.  Modern issue graded coins are a great way to diversify your silver & gold holdings.

Should tough economic times be in our future, very little will have been invested in the numismatic premium of these coins which allows the asset to be considered as viable for those interested in investing in gold and silver... while enjoying the beauty and nostalgia of these coins. 

Trends indicate that the most in-demand modern issue graded coin is the Silver American Eagle produced by the U.S. Mint.  Stay with me and I will show you how you can create an income while collecting these assets and even get some of these for free.

Non-graded bullion coins These are coins that are similar to the numismatic coins mentioned above however they are not graded or collected for their nostalgia, rarity or age.  They are coins that are collected for their metal content.  They differ in that they do not have numismatic premium.  Typically dealers will charge anywhere from 5% to over 40% over cost for these coins.  In just a bit I will show you how you can buy them for 0% over cost.  Stay tuned. 

Confiscation   Recently I was doing some research and called one of the major gold and silver dealers that you see advertising on TV practically 24/7.  The "sales person...or rather I say pit bull" that I talked to was totally indignant towards me.  He emphatically lectured me about the fact that they only sold numismatic and simi-numismatic coins because they were the ONLY coins that could not be confiscated by the government.   I can't believe these guys are shoveling out this garbage.  Don't be suckered in by this BS.

Let's get this one straight.  Way back in 1933 President Roosevelt signed an executive order requiring US citizens to turn over their gold to the Federal Reserve in exchange for Federal Reserve notes (dollars).  It's funny that less than 22 percent of the gold in circulation was ever turned in. 

On December 31, 1974, President Gerald Ford repealed the executive order that Roosevelt signed and Congress restored Americans' right to own gold.  Finally, in 1977 Congress removed the president's authority to regulate gold transactions.

Michael Maloney states that the United States is the only nation on the planet whose dollar would go to zero if they confiscated our metals and doesn’t believe that would ever happen.

He said it’s truly sad that this confiscation scare continues to be the root cause for either inaction or poor silver and gold investment decision making.

As the law stands today there are no limits on gold and silver ownership.  If the government outlaws private gold ownership again, there is unfortunately nothing you or I will be able to do about it. 

Our government makes the rules and they can change the rules at any time.  They can do anything they darn well please...regardless of what Mr. Snotty metals salesman tells you.  This confiscation concept is perpetuated by unscrupulous dealers trying to scare you to death so they can sell you what they want to sell you...their over-priced numismatic coins.  If you fall for it, you are going to end up buying the wrong coins, at way inflated prices. 

My advice, if any dealer even mentions "non-confiscatable," you should hang up the phone or run the other way.  There is simply no such thing as something the government cannot confiscate.  Lastly, if you decide to invest in gold and silver American Eagle coins like I suggest, they are extremely private because there is no reporting requirements when you buy and sell these coins.  More on this shortly...

Foreign Coins    Why not buy some South African Krugerrands, Canadian Maple Leafs, British Sovereigns, French Roosters, Danish Mermaids, etc.  Boy, doesn't that sound sexy?  Here are the facts.  Any numismatic premium associated with foreign coins diminishes outside the country of origin.  So if you buy some of these sexy foreign coins... when it comes time to sell them... if you want to get the best price... you may have to have to find buyers in the respective countries.  Then you are going to have to ship them overseas to the buyer....and you have the exchange rates to deal with.

Additionally, some foreign coins have varying weights like 0.2354 troy ounce, etc.  They are seldom one full troy ounce and they are seldom stamped with their metal content or purity... but only stamped with a denomination.  Due to the above factors, foreign coins are much more difficult to sell and are of limited value in an emergency.  Well then, "Why do so many of those metals dealers/salespeople push them so hard?"  You guessed it.  They often place higher mark-ups on them so they can make more profit on them.  In my opinion... why bother?  Why not keep it simple and just do it the easy and safe way?

Examples of residual income would be authoring a
book, acting in a movie, singing a song, or being
part of network marketing. This industry has
created more millionaires than any other industry in
the world and 70 percent of those millionaires are
women. Most network marketing programs have
you purchase products. You consume them, make
a little money and at the end of the day, you are
still broke, in debt and have nothing to show for it
all. Isn’t it time to change your paradigm?
There couldn’t be a better program at this time
in history and in this economy. Unemployment is
high. Everyone’s cash flow is tight. Inflation is rising
and hyperinflation threatening. Social Security’s future
is uncertain. However, Preservation of Wealth (POW) has a
blueprint to help you produce, provide and preserve your wealth so
that you can change your paradigm.
The company is transacting millions of dollars in metals revenue and
has a long list of satisfied customers. It’s quietly becoming the premier
metals and networking company. POW boasts exclusive contracts with
suppliers and much more. Preservation of Wealth’s CEO Bill Constain
believes “all of the elements are present” for his company to potentially
be the fastest growing company in the industry and
then sustaining its position as a legacy for generations
to come.   
POW’s one-two punch marketing
strategy
POW’s mission is to provide the average person
the opportunity to create wealth. To accomplish its
mission, POW uses a two-step approach to produce,
provide and preserve wealth.
First POW offers the best possible pricing on precious
metal bullion as well as providing many other benefits that
are designed to save you money. This helps to increase your funds
required to build wealth. POW offers two methods to accomplish building
funds.
1. POW’s Benefit Program will help build funds by saving money on
services and products for both normal purchases being made anyway and
significant savings on precious metals, especially in the form of gold and
silver coins and bullion, being used to build wealth.
CHANGE
YOURPARADIGM!
Preservation of Wealth
Are you tired of working hard and having
little to show for it? Our economy has two
different types of income creation, which
are linear and residual income. Linear
income is trading hours for dollars and
residual income is repeat income created
from one effort.
2. POW’s income program allows
Consultants to earn significant income required
to build wealth. How significant? You will
soon learn how you can earn $100 in Fast Start
Commission fits and be in profit with just a
few sales. Additionally, POW’s 75 percent cap
in its binary compensation plan may be the
industry’s highest and you can earn unlimited
number of cycles (number of times you get paid
$100 a week) with five generations of matching
bonuses and much more. This means there
is no limit on how much you can earn. POW’s
income program can rival any direct sales company’s
compensation plan. POW provides more
than a great way to generate income. POW also
provides the means to build wealth.
In fact between all of the savings and significant
income you can earn, POW provides
the means to generate the funds needed to start
building wealth.
The second step is to provide a system to
build wealth. To do this, requires something
that is a proven long-term asset with a historic
growth in value that can be purchased at or
below market value to maximize the gains and
build wealth. You will soon learn how POW
prices not only beat every multi-level marketing
(MLM)/direct sales competition but also the
biggest names in mainstream bullion. POW is
a highly competitive metals business that also
has a tremendous compensation plan tied to the
Benefits Program and its numismatics.
Silver may be the best possible
way to build wealth
Although Preservation of Wealth does not
give or offer financial advice or strategies to
its customers, they are only here to sell precious
metals at the best possible price. Yes,
many experts believe silver will out perform
the stock market, any bank instrument, real
estate and even gold for years to come. As the
dollar continues to fall in value, especially due
to the quantitative easing policy of the Federal
Reserve Bank (the Fed), precious metals prices
usually rise not only proportionally but in a
compound manner as more as people turn to
metals as a safety net. As the dollar has fallen
in six months from requiring only $1.18 to purchase
a Euro Dollar to now requiring $1.45 to
purchase the same Euro Dollar, silver has risen
from under $20 an ounce to over $40 an ounce.
Yet silver is still considered to be under priced.
Historically, gold usually costs about 15
times more than silver. Gold is now fluctuating
between $1,435 and $1,475. At $1,455, silver
should cost $97 per ounce. It is now just over
about $40 an ounce, but rising.
However, gold is also still rising. Many
experts including Dr. Bob Livingston and the
S&A Financial Digest believe gold could hit
the $3,000 range by 2013 or even reach $5,000
an ounce this decade. With gold even at $3,000
an ounce, silver should historically reach $200
an ounce. That is a 500 percent increase! Do
you think the stock market will increase that
much? The Dow Jones would then have to
exceed 60,000. Do you think that the home that
fell from $250,000 in the last couple of years
to $200,000 will turn around and cost a million
dollars in the same amount of time? Even
if silver just rises to $100, that would be a 250
percent gain. The owners of Network Marketing
Business Journal (NMBJ) believe in and are
purchasing precious metals. We believe that
precious metals, especially silver is not only the
best hedge against inflation, but it is the best
way to build and preserve wealth.
Increasing your “financial literacy”
POW is determined, perhaps because the
executive team has backgrounds in financial
planning, to teach people how to get and sustain
wealth, particularly through high-end precious
metals. Bill Constain, POW’s CEO, explains
that the average person can do this for no more
than the cost of an evening of entertainment.
He states precious metals never go out of style,
have a great wealth-building track record and
need no experience to understand or to sell to
prospects.

Many experts believe silver will out perform
the stock market, any bank instrument, real
estate and even gold for years to come.
gold is also still rising.
Many experts including Dr.
Bob Livingston and the S&A
Financial Digest believe gold
could hit the $3,000
range by 2013 or even
reach $5,000 an
ounce this
decade.
Some things in the Program are dental, vision, legal, pharmacy, cashback
shopping mall benefits and recreation/entertainment discounts.
POW is maximizing for its customers savings on things they would
be paying for anyway! The company has many satisfied customers getting,
as Constain put it, “Value, value, value.”
Silver and gold coins preserve POW customers’
wealth
You can buy the same Eagles, Maples, Pandas, Philharmonics, etc.,
from other coin dealers but POW sells them at its cost. Its customers
combine their purchasing power to buy gold, silver, platinum coins at
the best possible pricing. In fact, POW’s discounts on coins are so deep
and so low that coin dealers have come to POW to get the great deals for
themselves! Most have purchased the Benefit Program at full retail, as
retail customers, just to obtain POW’s pricing.
You can buy POW products at retail or in the Benefits Program –
either at great savings. POW’s customers can save 15 to 60 percent when
acquiring precious metals because the company sells the same coins,
bars, etc., without charging a markup or adding inflated shipping charges.
There are no commissions paid to POW employees or its sales reps on
precious metal transactions. The more customers that POW has, the better
pricing all the customers and POW retail customers receive.
The American Eagle Silver is POW’s most popular selling coin, as
well as the world’s most highly demanded coin. It was first released by
the U.S. Mint in 1986. It is struck only in the one troy ounce denomination
and is guaranteed to contain one troy ounce of 99.9 percent pure
silver. It is authorized by the U.S. Congress and its weight and content
are certified by the U.S. Mint.
Other coins offered by POW include: the American Eagle Gold Coin;
the American Buffalo; the South African Krugerrand; the Canadian
Maple Leaf; the Austrian Philharmonic; the Swiss Franc; the Morgan
Silver Dollar; the Silver Panda; and the Silver Canadian Maple Leaf.
POW also offers silver bars that trade closer to spot compared to
premium coins likes the Eagle or Maple and can be a very efficient
way to own silver. Very popular in recent years, POW’s generic rounds
and bars are .999 fine silver and trade closer to spot price compared to
government-issued bullion. You can also purchase from POW NTR oneounce
Gold Triangles. Being both beautiful and unique, these .999 pure
one-ounce triangles are becoming more popular in recent years.
For those on the Optionship Program, the products are numismatic,
graded coins. They are recognized as premium coins by the highest
regarded grading companies in the world. Each coin is encased in a protective
clear plastic slab to preserve its brilliance and quality. Unlike the
bullion coins / bars that are sold at cost, some proceeds for the Optionship
coins are paid back to the referral network in the form of Business
Volume (BV). Promoting these numismatic, collectible coins is a great
way to add residual income.
At-cost pricing is available to all customers regardless if they refer
other customers. Many customers choose POW simply for at-cost pricing
and will earn commission should they chose to make referrals. Customers
also receive Price Point Notifications via text message when POW has
special deals, for example, Silver Eagles at 0.99 over spot. No other direct
sales program offers low pricing over cost to POW’s!
POW’s Benefit Program is the first of the company’s one-two punch to produce, provide
and then preserve wealth for its customers. The value of POW Benefits program is in its
savings potential and discounts. The company has many extra benefit programs that are
free, including health cost saving benefits!

wealth
POW’s with
POW is much more than just an incomegenerating
program. Its goal is to increase
your “financial IQ.” POW helps you
increase your net funds available through savings
generated by its Benefit Program. POW’s main
goal is to help you produce, provide and preserve
wealth. However, POW’s compensation plan
can boast several industry highs including the
highest cycle percentage payout (and that is on a
50/50 structure) and an industry-high 75 percent
payout cap in a binary program. So despite that
POW’s primary objective is to produce, provide
and preserve wealth, its compensation plan set
higher standards for earning income too. POW
prides itself with on-time commissions and no
missed payout checks.
Starting with POW
You can start as a retail customer and if you
purchase the Benefit Program, you can even
purchase coins at a savings. You can start as a
Retail Associate without any purchase and start
selling and earning retail profits. If you desire
to become a Consultant and earn override commissions,
you can sign an application to become
a Consultant. Once you make a 100 BV personal
sale or purchase and sponsor one person
in each of your right and leg legs who each does
100 BV, you can become a Consultant and earn
override commissions.
This is standard for most binary structures
that permit only two persons directly under you.
All others that you sponsor, or those under you
sponsor, are placed into one of those two legs.
As those upline continue to build their business,
they must place all new people into one of their
two legs, who may also be placed under you
in your sales organization creating more sales
volume for you.
Fast retail profits
The Benefit Program is sold for $249 and
includes Dealer Cost precious metal bullion
coins / bars. Additional benefits are all designed
to save you money. It includes the POW Benefit
Program, which has sold for $249 by itself and
many other benefits that can save you a lot of
money including some free health services benefits.
The POW Benefit Program can literally
save you thousands of dollars in silver and gold
coin purchases alone depending on the number
you purchase. Whenever a program is sold,
whether your sponsor sells one to you or you
sell one to others, a $100 retail profit is paid.
That is a high 40 percent rate of profit. So sell
three and you are in profit.
As you will soon read, you can sell just two
Benefit Programs and help each of them to sell
two and you will earn another $100 in binary
override commissions. Either way you are in
profit with just two or three personal sales. That
is not even counting profits from selling coins
and bullion or all of the benefit savings you
could be enjoying.
Matching retail profits
Qualified Consultants earn a $20 profit
override when one of his or her personally sponsored
people sells a Benefit Program. So if all
you do is sell two programs to your two personally
sponsored people and help them sell their
two qualifying programs, you will earn $200 in
retail profits, $80 in retail overrides and a $100
binary override. That is already $380 and you
are now able to earn even more!

binary
Highest paying
Many binary programs require you to obtain 300 BV on your
right and 300 BV on your left to earn a commission (600 totals
BV). That is called a cycle. Most pay $50 on that 600 BV
cycle or 10 percent on the weakest leg, which would be only $30 for that
volume. Some programs make you have twice as much on your biggest
leg, but pay you on only your weakest leg. For example, you would be
required to have 600 BV in your strong leg and 300 BV in your weaker
leg and still pay you just $60 for the 900 total BV volumes or about 6.6
percent. If you are paid 10 percent on the weak leg or $30, it would be
only 3.3 percent.
POW pays you a very high $100 per cycle and that’s on just a 50/50
match of 300 BV and 300 BV. That equals 33.3 percent on your weak
leg or 16.67 percent on total volume. That is probably the highest in
the industry.
That is not all! Even beginners in POW can cycle up to five times a
week. That means you can earn up to $500 a week in binary overrides
alone. You can advance in rank from Consultant to Executive to 10 Star
Executive by sponsoring people and increasing sales and helping them
succeed. You will earn more cycles per week and with sufficient BV
volume, you can Cycle 50, 100, 200 or more and even unlimited times a
week. At even 200 cycles a week, you would earn over a million dollars
a year in just binary overrides. 10 Star Executives earn unlimited cycles
with no caps on income and there is still more … .
How can POW do this?
Most all companies with binary compensation structures cap off
the total amount they are willing to pay at 40 percent to as high, in a
few, as 60 percent of BV. If total commissions calculated exceeds their
cap, they will prorate the commissions before they pay commissions to
remain within their cap. POW has an industry high cap of 75 percent.
This means they pay more of the BV and you can earn more.
Five generations of Executive Matching Bonuses
(EMB)
In a binary structure you can have only two Consultants on your first
level. The rest of the people you sponsor fall below them.
In POW’s matching structure, all of your personally sponsored
people go right under you on your first level. This is called your first
generation. Everyone they personally sponsored goes on their first
level, which is your second level and is called your second generation.
In POW this continues and you can earn a 10 percent matching bonus
of their binary commission on up to five generations, depending what
rank of Executive you are. If you sponsor a lot of people, the five generations
of Executive Matching Bonuses could exceed even your binary
commissions and you already know how much that can be – unlimited!
Sales Performance Bonus
Every month an Executive increases the number of active personally
sponsored Consultants or Executives, they earn a 50 percent additional
first Executive Matching Bonus. That is on the new people and on all
of your personally sponsored first generation binary commissions too.
If you have already sponsored many active Consultants and Executives,
these bonuses could mean thousands dollars more income a month for
continuing to build and support your sales organization. And of course,
building your sales organization will also increase your binary commissions
and regular EMBs too. Now imagine how much everyone’s
income will increase when all of the Executives continue to build their
sales organization each month to earn the Sales Performance Bonuses!
You should be excited about this compensation plan’s potential.
However, income does not automatically convert to wealth. That is
where the rest of POW has a sure advantage. Instead of just consuming
your products and income, each month you purchase silver and gold
coins and bullion with the new funds from your benefit savings and
POW’s record-setting compensation plan, you can produce, provide
and preserve your wealth. For most people, that will be a welcomed

Justin Davis is the founder and president of
POW. Early in his career at Mutual of New
York, he learned the value of financial
planning and the benefits of precious metals.
Before his time as a financial planner,
Davis was fortunate to have success in networking
and ultimately walked away from
financial planning when asked by a close
friend to partner in a software development
venture specific to MLM and networking.
He’s had the pleasure of working hand in
hand with the owners of many large and startup
companies and understands the power of
networking. He’s enjoyed the friendships/relationships
of other MLMs, but always felt the need to simplify the process
of networking. It was time to take the simplicity of precious metals and
duplicate that into business. Preservation of Wealth was created to provide
the best products in the world to people at the best prices, while keeping
things simple.
Bill Constain is POW’s CEO and national marketing director. He
is also the former president and founder of Strategic Wealth Network,
bringing his clients nearly 20 years of experience in the financial and
legacy planning industry. He is a founding member of the National
Association of Financial Advisors (NAFA), The International Who’s Who
of Professionals, and The Cambridge Who’s Who Registry of Executives.
He has also served on the National Advisory Board for MoneyTrax INC,
where he has mentored over 5,000 advisors around the country.
Constain has earned over 10 industry designations, which include
Registered Financial Planner (the RFP), and leads a national team of financial
advisors servicing individuals, business owners, and corporations.
He has been a trainer, mentor, and keynote speaker to the direct sales
industry over the last 22 years. Constain has also served on various advisory
boards including Isagenix International from 2008 to 2010 helping
that company achieve over $1 billion in sales.
Constain is also the author of a new book entitled, Preserving Wealth
with Precious Metals and co-host of an Internet television program called
“Preservation of Wealth Network.”

industry
Started in 2009, POW was originally designed to cater to the wealthy,
giving them access to precious metal purchasing. As time passed, it
has grown to more than 3,000 customers and represented millions of
dollars of purchasing power, which gives POW the best price to pass on to
its customers. The company, which became so popular that many people
looked at it as an income opportunity, is now poised to attract several
hundred customers in the coming years.
Now POW is changing the way people buy gold, silver and other
precious metals. It’s an established, two-year company, celebrating
its anniversary July 1, close to the United States’, and also providing
independence – financial independence – and liberty during its Phase 2
launch. Like our Founding Fathers, POW’s founders were tired of people
working hard but not making enough money or having any net wealth to
show for it. They urge you to “get with the program” – their program – to
produce, provide and preserve wealth now, not … someday.
