Nashville, Tenn. (December 9, 2020) — 1st National Reserve, a Texas-based company specializing in rare coin investment, has landed country music legend Larry Gatlin as its celebrity spokesperson. Moving forward, Gatlin will be featured in the company’s advertising and promotional efforts. 

In a video message, Gatlin, a GRAMMY® Award-winner and 1st National Reserve customer, explains he should have followed the recommendations of financial advisors to purchase gold when it was about $300 an ounce in 1979 (the same year his smash hit “All The Gold In California” skyrocketed to No.1). Instead, he explains, “I bought horses and cows and cars and guitars and a lot of other stuff. I mean, a lot of other stuff. Now, gold is over $1,900 an ounce while the horses are dead, the cows are dead, the cars won’t run and the guitars are, well, just guitars. The bad news: I didn’t buy gold. The good news: now I own gold and I’m going to buy more from the experts at 1st National Reserve,” he continues.

Gatlin is also featured prominently on the company’s new website, 1stnationalreserve.com. The site provides up-to-date listings about the company’s current precious metals and numismatic offerings for online shopping as well as useful information about the enjoyment of coin collecting.

“It’s an honor to work with an icon like Larry Gatlin and we’re thrilled that he sees the value in acquiring gold and silver coins,” says 1st National Reserve manager Ryan Verde.
