Gwen Wertz
I joined Blanchard and Co., Inc. in January 2006 as a Portfolio Manager. With over 35 years of experience in the retail and hospitality industries, including various management positions, I’ve always loved working with people and providing exceptional customer service. My introduction to the metals market began with antique sterling silver, which quickly grew into a lasting passion for precious metals.
During my time at Blanchard, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the history and investment value of numismatic coins. My favorite areas of the market include Southern Minted and California Territorial Coins. I’m a proud graduate of Louisiana State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree, and I’ve lived in the New Orleans area my entire life. Outside of work, I enjoy volunteering, traveling, cheering on the Saints, LSU, and Cubs, cooking, and gardening.
