They were sued
You may have guessed that the Silver and Gold pawn Shop is loved by all. Ever since Pawn Stars aired the store has become super famous and its workers renowned. But not everyone thinks the shop is all it’s been made out to be. In 2014 the Silver and Gold Pawn Shop was sued by an unhappy customer.
The customer sold the shop a ton of gold coins valuing around 12,000 dollars. The owners of the shop melted down the coins, which is illegal in most of the United States. The customer discovered that the coins had been melted and tried to sue them, but lucky for the shop owners, in Nevada it is legal to melt coins, so the unhappy customer lost the case.
