Don McAlvany goes to Wall Street to work for a New York Stock Exchange Firm. Seeing the shift towards instability in the traditional investment markets as a result of Johnson-era fiscal and monetary policies, Don becomes interested in gold ownership as a means of safeguarding savings.
Don & his wife Molly begin selling two-ounce gold bullion medallions to investors. “Our company started helping people fight off the coming inflation and devaluation because we saw these things coming, and we were selling solid gold religious medallions, which were the only legal way to buy gold bullion until January 1, 1975.” – Don
Don becomes sales manager for International Investors, the largest gold share mutual fund in the world at the time. He develops and distributes the product for John Van Eck from 1973 to 1979, while Molly builds America’s first bullion business.

Gold ownership is legalized on January 1, 1975.
