Our Team
The Lone Star Coins team brings a depth of professional experience that is starkly uncommon in the bullion industry — our partners include former attorneys, commercial bankers, small business operators and venture capitalists.
That background isn't incidental; it shapes how we transact.
Whether we're working with a church or faith-based organization liquidating a donated collection, an estate manager under fiduciary obligation to document fair value, a probate attorney shepherding assets through a trust, or a private venture operator conducting diligence on a precious metals position, we speak the language of those engagements fluently.
We understand the documentation expectations of fiduciaries, the risk sensitivities of institutional counter-parties, and the governance structures that nonprofit and estate contexts require.
The result is a transaction experience with minimal friction and no translation layer — institutional partners deal directly with a team that has sat on their side of the table.
Who We've Worked With
Non-Profit and Faith-Based Organizations
Churches and faith-based organizations frequently receive donated collections with no clear path to liquidation. We handle these transactions with discretion, fair pricing, and immediate settlement — no friction, no delay.
Executors, Trustees, and Fiduciaries
Executors are often handed unfamiliar assets under real time pressure. We make the evaluation and liquidation process straightforward and transparent.
Attorneys & Law Firms
We routinely work alongside attorneys navigating estate, trust, probate, and inheritance matters that involve precious metals or coin collections.
Banks and Institutional Custodians
We have experience working along side financial institutions managing pension funds, trust accounts, or custodial assets.
Divorce and Family Law Proceedings
Precious metals and coin collections frequently appear as marital assets requiring valuation or liquidation. We work discreetly with parties to provide appraisals.
Not Sure Where You Fit?
If your situation doesn't fit neatly into one of these categories, reach out anyway. We've seen a lot of unusual circumstances, and if we can help, we will.

Confidentiality Is Non-Negotiable.
High-value transactions demand more than expertise — they demand privacy. At Lone Star Coins, confidentiality isn't a policy. It's a practice.

Great service from the moment I walked in the doors. Friendly staff, Joshua assisted me with the authenticity of a couple coins. He answered the myriad of questions I had concerning buying and selling coins. The rates for selling and purchasing of precious metals are clearly displayed and are close to large market competitors. I’ll be back!

First time dealing with them and they were absolutely professional. I spoke with Andrew on the phone several times and they were super friendly and helpful when I got there. Andrew and I believe it was his dad made the transaction quick and easy. I definitely recommend them.
