About East Texas Gold & Silver

Established in 2008, East Texas Gold & Silver is a trusted, family-owned business located in Gun Barrel City, Texas, proudly serving collectors, investors, and sellers throughout Athens, Seven Points, Mabank, and surrounding East Texas communities.

Our story began with a unique twist of fate. After owning and operating a gold refinery for several years, I found myself at a crossroads—ready to move on from the refining business. Around the same time, the original owner of East Texas Gold & Silver, who happened to be one of my refinery customers, was looking to sell. It was a perfect match, and I’ve proudly carried the torch ever since.

With over 16 years of experience in the precious metals industry, I’ve built a reputation rooted in faith, honesty, and genuine service. Our customers trust us for fair pricing, authentic products, and a personable experience that only a local coin shop can provide.
