Episode Details

Texas just dropped its first-ever gold and silver commemorative coins — the “Lone Stars” and 24-karat “Modern Redbacks” — set to hit shelves mid-July through the Texas Bullion Depository. Designed by late artist Joel Iskowitz, the coins honor Texas history with Lady Liberty and the State Capitol, while the gold bills add collector appeal. Not legal tender, their value comes from precious metal content and rarity. This bold move aims to boost the state-run depository’s global profile, a facility Governor Greg Abbott helped launch in 2015 to secure Texans’ precious metals. Collectors and investors, watch out — these are more than trinkets, they’re Texas pride in metal form.
