The Goal: Emphasizing Reading From Birth
Mike Fuljenz, President, Universal Coin & Bullion
Kindergarten teachers wish that all their disadvantaged students knew their ABCs, could sound out their ABCs and didn’t have only half of the vocabulary (2900 vs. 5800 words) of other students in their class.
The key to improving income inequality, crime, employment, self-esteem, community relations, welfare participation and increasing diversity in law enforcement and other areas is improving childhood literacy by the third grade. (From first to third, you learn to read. From fourth grade on, you read to learn.)
Welcome to Mike Fuljenz's Official Site
Michael Fuljenz admits, "I love coins. From the very first Indian quarter-eagle gold piece I bought for my personal collection, to the latest batch of twenty-dollar gold pieces that I gathered together for a group of collectors, I've been hooked." Michael adds, "I worked hard, saved up to buy favorite coins and embarked on what I know now is a lifelong love affair. Coin collecting fires my imagination, and I want to pass my love of coins on to others."

ICTA Thanks Mike Fuljenz
As you probably know, ICTA is the national trade association that is the “watch dog” for the coin/precious metals community, most especially on the federal level. We’re a comparatively very small association and can only do so much with our small staff. When being proactive with in-state dealers to try to achieve a state sales tax exemption on coins and precious metals, they usually hire a lobbyist and then work with ICTA for the education part. We then all work together to first educate the lobbyist who then may find an appropriate legislator to sponsor the bill before going to the next step of educationg the rest of the legislators. This slightly an oversimplification, but you get the idea.
