Battle Born Metals Brings Gold and Silver Trade to Fallon

Battle Born Metals Brings Gold and Silver Trade to Fallon
: L-R Merlene Ward, Fallon Chamber of Commerce Director, Ava Case, Fallon Chamber of Commerce Director, Bruce Homer, Dax Homer, Owner Battle Born Metals, Taylor Espinosa, First Independent Bank, Dave Munoz, Fallon Chamber of Commerce, Ambassador, Scott Johnston, Fallon Chamber of Commerce, Ambassador.

Dax Homer, owner of Battle Born Metals, specializes in gold and silver coins, bullion, and a limited selection of new fine jewelry for men and women. While he buys coins, he does not purchase or repair jewelry. The business is located at 2152 Williams Ave., Suite H.

Before opening Battle Born Metals, Homer spent several years in warehouse management. Just before Christmas one year, he learned his company was closing. To make ends meet, he took on construction work with his father, Bruce. However, not wanting to pursue construction as a long-term career, he seized an opportunity to start his own business.

Battle Born Metals held a soft opening on Jan. 3, and celebrated a grand opening and ribbon-cutting set for Feb. 11, 2025.

For those interested in verifying a coin’s bullion content, Homer offers on-the-spot testing at his shop.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
