They saw MCM as a complementary addition to the AMS family of companies, recognized the strength of MCM’s e-commerce capabilities and rich history in modern coins and precious metals, and saw an opportunity to invest in MCM’s continued growth. </i></p><p><br /></p><p><i>Moving forward, MCM will continue to operate as a stand-alone company, with current staff remaining in place. </i><b>John Maben</b>,<i> former CEO and owner, will transition out of the day-to-day operations but continue to support MCM in a consulting role. </i><b>Jay Rudo</b>, <b>Hayden Tubbs</b> <i>and I will continue in leadership roles at MCM.</i></p><p><br /></p><p><i>MCM customers can rest assured knowing that our core values and emphasis on positive customer interaction and competitive pricing will remain unchanged.
