The Coin Vault Meet the Crew Series: Missy P.

Glue (gloo). Verb (used with object): to fix or attach firmly with or as if with glue; make adhere closely. Example: to glue a model ship together.

We are not a model ship, but it is a fair comparison. We break, we crack, we make mistakes. The glue that holds us together is the reason we are able to do what we do every night and have it look the way it does, sound the way it does, and continue every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday night at 7 pm EST. But why is this worth mentioning? To be short and simple about it, we are the pieces and Missy is the glue.

Purchasing, product fulfillment, and show involvement have been something she has done for 17 years in between The Coin Vault and our parent company, SilverTowne. It was not until 2015 when Missy was directly involved with the show as a brand new studio was built and the show came home to Winchester, Indiana. It was then that her gears really started moving in relation to being live three nights a week.

“Maggie was the one who worked the floor during the shows in Franklin (Tennessee) and she trained me when it moved here,” Missy said. “From then on, I was purchasing and inquiring product for the show during the day and working the floor during the night.”

Although mentioned before, there are a few of us who pull double duty during the day and night to make things operate the way they do. Missy, being the glue that she is, is one of them.

“I do a majority of the purchasing and product fielding,” she said. “The morning after the shows, I bring in all the orders, create new SKU numbers in the system, and make sure nothing looks odd before the orders get printed. Being here at night and seeing what they will be doing live during the show allows me to get a jump on all of that before my morning routine takes place. It’s a major advantage of working both shifts. The show is a bridge for my next workday.”

Because of her involvement with the product for the show, her vendor relationships are perhaps the most important. She sees items before even Andy or Tyler do.

“Vendors will email me and ask if I think this product or that product will work for the show,” she explained. “I will then forward that email to Andy or let him know the who, what, and how many of something specific when he gets in.”

While scaling back a few her duties as of late to relieve her workload, Missy’s live show nights consist of clipping Tyler with his earpiece (it’s their thing) right before showtime, willingly making one of her delicious meals often, and filling in for cameras and floor duty when needed. You have also seen her on a few promotional advertisements during the show. If some of that sounds like what a friend or family member would do, you would be right.

“I love how close we are,” she stated. “The family unit that we are is something no one gets to see on the other side of the television screen. That’s another reason I think people like to watch the show. The family aspect of it attracts people. What you see is what you get with Andy and Tyler and really The Coin Vault. They aren’t fake and we all make mistakes and sometimes you see that come across the air.”

In the grand scheme of things around here, titles do not really mean a whole lot. No, we do not mean that in a negative way. It is just a fact. Missy is proof of it.

“If I could tell someone one thing about us that they would not be able to tell when watching the show is just the amount of hours we put in,” she said. “We all do multiple things every day. We receive the product, fulfill, ship, assemble, etc. We do whatever it takes to get orders out the door. Everyone puts in the time and energy to get things done.”

When not keeping everything together here at The Coin Vault, Missy enjoys spending time with her son Mason and her fur babies Sadie, Rudy, Luna, and Bean. She appreciates the outdoors and spends as much time outside as possible, biking, running, and working in the garden.
