Lee Greenwood, “America’s Patriot,” has joined forces with America’s Gold Expert, Universal Coin & Bullion, at a time when the value of gold and silver precious metals are hitting historic highs. This exclusive partnership marks the first time Greenwood has worked with a company that sells gold and silver directly to consumers.

“The American dollar for decades was backed by gold and like most Americans, the value of our dollar means something to me,” says Greenwood. “Knowing the value of our precious metals continue to rise, I am honored to be working with Universal Coin & Bullion in making sure people know where they can get beautiful silver and gold coins as well as pure bars.”

Lee Greenwood is a Grammy award winner, a CMA award winner, an ACM award winner, and a Presidential appointee to the National Endowment for the Arts. His catalog of hits includes over 20 top ten singles and seven number one songs. Greenwood is known for his patriotic anthem “God Bless The USA,” which has been performed countless times for eight different Presidents over five decades.

Like Greenwood, Dr. Fuljenz is recognized as an industry leader, having won more than 60 prestigious national and regional awards for his consumer education and protection work in rare coins and precious metals. He is a frequent expert guest on local and national business and personal finance programs, such as Fox Business Network and CNBC, and has been quoted in The Wall Street Journal, Kiplinger’s, Los Angeles Times, and other broadcast, print, and online news media. Dr. Mike Fuljenz, known as America’s Gold Expert and President of Universal Coin & Bullion, was thrilled to partner with Greenwood.

“I’ve always admired Lee Greenwood,” says Dr. Mike Fuljenz. “He connects with his fans as he travels our great country. I was pleased to meet him at a charity event in Texas on September 11th and as a company, we are even more honored to be working with such a music legend.”
