Buy Gold and Silver in Thornton, CO

The city of Thornton was a humble stretch of farmland until 1953, when developers chose the site for a planned community as a suburb of rapidly growing Denver. Named for former Colorado governor Dan Thornton, Thornton is a thriving town in a Gold Rush state, close to the Denver, Aurora, and Bloomfield metroplex. Perhaps due to its history as a mining state, gold and silver coins and bullion are favored for many area residents, and you'll find many reputable shops offering high-quality coins, bullion, and precious metals. Because Colorado does not tax gold and silver transactions, Thornton is a popular destination for coin buyers.
