Know the business
The useful overview.
The website identifies BOLD Precious Metals LLC as its owner and operator, with an Austin, Texas address. This establishes the named storefront operator, not its ultimate ownership structure.[1]
Its catalog groups silver by form and producer, including American Eagles, Maple Leafs, Britannias, Germania pieces and Scottsdale products. This is a dealer profile: carrying another producer’s work does not establish that BOLD minted it or holds that producer’s licenses.[4]
BOLD identifies Ryan Cochran as founder and CEO and gives 2017 as its founding year. Its own earlier launch announcement and BBB’s entity dates do not align with that simple origin date; the milestones below preserve the distinction.[2][3][10]

Entity dates reported by BBB
BBB lists both business start and incorporation as January 26, 2016. This is a directory record, not a state-registry verification.[10]
- 2016-11-01
Online-store launch announcement
A company announcement dated November 1, 2016 describes a new online store and earlier eBay and direct sales. It supports trading history before the later 2017 founding account.[3]
- 2017
Company’s stated founding year
The current founder biography uses 2017. The precise distinction between incorporation, earlier trading and the claimed founding milestone remains unresolved.[2]
An ultimate parent or ownership percentages were not established in this research. A founder title is not proof of sole ownership.[1][2]
