Our Mission

At American Hartford Gold, we aim to educate clients about investments in the precious metal industry. We strive to provide unparalleled customer service built on trust, integrity, and absolute transparency. Our goal is to achieve 100% customer satisfaction.

We offer all our clients our Buyback Commitment, in which we encourage our clients to contact us first if they wish to sell their metals. While we cannot legally guarantee that we will repurchase metals, we never charge any additional liquidation fees and provide a quick and simple 3-step liquidation process.

Our Executive Leadership

At American Hartford Gold, we are proud of our executive leadership’s dedication to providing reliable services to clients as well as support to the workforce. With over a decade of experience in the precious metals industry, our Chief Executive Officer, Sanford Mann, is well-known for his professionalism and work ethics. Our Executive Chairman, Scott Gerlis, brings over a decade of retail gold and silver experience. He has made it a mission of his life to educate and guide people about how they can protect their retirement savings by investing in precious metals.

Sanford Mann: Chief Executive Officer

American Hartford Gold was built under Sanford’s simple credo that he learned from his father at a young age: provide the customer with unlimited education and an honest deal. Putting this philosophy into practice has led to an A+ customer satisfaction rating and made American Hartford Gold one of the fastest-growing precious metals dealers in the country.

Raised in a close-knit farm family, Sanford developed a strong work ethic and sense of community at an early age. He studied Economics at Connecticut State University and served in various senior financial management positions in New York City before moving out west to follow an entrepreneurial calling. Sanford now resides with his family in Santa Monica.

He truly believes that customers are family and success comes only when you commit to providing superior service in every transaction.

In his free time, Sanford volunteers at several non-profits, pursues an active lifestyle and sits on various boards. He’s a dog lover and can often be found at the office or the beach with his boxer “Cookie” by his side.

As Chief Executive Officer of American Hartford Gold, Sanford is responsible for the company’s overall strategic direction in the gold industry, attracting the most ethical and knowledgeable talent in the business, and maintaining the highest levels of customer satisfaction.

Scott Gerlis: Executive Chairman

Scott is a proud Los Angeles native who owes his life-long love of precious metals to his father Harold, an avid coin collector who taught him to appreciate history, economics, and community. He learned that one cannot have true wealth without owning physical precious metals and made it part of his life’s mission to educate the world about how to protect retirement savings with safe-haven assets.

Working side by side with Sanford Mann, Scott started American Hartford Gold. He shares Mann’s singular focus on customer service, high ethical standards and making the company a great place to work and do business with.

In addition to founding American Hartford Gold, Scott has owned and operated successful retail businesses, invested in real estate, and is involved in his community and non-profit organizations. He resides with his wife and family in Los Angeles.

Max Baecker: President

Max is committed to American Hartford Gold’s mission of helping clients achieve long-term financial security by providing them with unparalleled knowledge on precious metal markets and products.

Under his guidance, American Hartford Gold has delivered billions of dollars in precious metals to thousands of satisfied clients.

After AHG made Inc.’s list of fastest growing companies for the third time, Max said, “Our meteoric growth rate says a lot about the trust our clients have put in us and the kind of work our specialists continue to deliver.

With all the growth and recognition over the past several years, our basic philosophy hasn’t changed, empower our clients with the best information and dedicated service, and the growth will follow.”
