RCW is a family-owned business that buys rare U.S. coins below market value using its expertise and relationships. It profits by reselling these coins through wholesale and retail channels. RCW also directly sells coin portfolios to clients, allowing it to capitalize on missed investment opportunities while providing clients coins at below market prices. The rare coin market is large, stable, and uncorrelated to traditional assets, making coins a viable alternative investment and wealth preservation tool.

strong purchasing power to buy investment grade coins at below market
value
• RCW profits from this market position by combining opportunistic
purchasing with broad wholesale and retail distribution channels
• There are many opportunities to purchase rare U.S. coins at great values,
but RCW does not have unlimited cash flow to act on every investment
opportunity
• Selling coins directly to clients benefits RCW in that it can profit from
acting on otherwise missed opportunities
• The client benefits by having industry experts purchase a portfolio of
elite U.S. coins for less than market value on the client’s behalf
• Over the past 6 years, RCW has successfully introduced clients to this
alternative tangible asset class through direct investments into separately
managed short-term trading accounts and custom long-term wealth
preservation portfolios

MARKET SNAPSHOT

4. STRONG AND STABLE MARKET
• Low volatility
• Rare coins typically do not flood the
marketplace when in strong hands
• Since 2000, rare U.S. coins have
outperformed the S&P 500 with
approximately half the volatility
• Wealth Preservation
• Owning investment grade coins at
the right price serves as a downside
protection tool in all market cycles,
with the added benefit of expected
asset appreciation
• Uncorrelated to traditional assets
and the precious metals market
• Rare coin values are determined by
popularity, quality, scarcity,
population, history and demand
• Analogy: the value of a Picasso
painting does not vary with the price
of paint or international affairs

at values that allow for strong investment potential

in the right place at the right time and was able to purchase this coin for $2.75
million

the market, purchasing expertise and buying power
• Contursi bought the 1787 Unique Brasher Doubloon at public auction
