(6)	Related party transactions.

The Company purchases and sells a substantial portion of precious metal and bullion to NTR Metals. During 2010, NTR Metals, pursuant to the partial assignment of the Company’s rights as a Buyer to NTR under the Company-SIBL Purchase Agreement, became a major stockholder of the Company. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company sold approximately $38.5 million of precious metals and bullion to NTR Metals. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company purchased approximately $20.9 million in precious metal and bullion from NTR Metals to fulfill customer orders. As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s was obligated to pay $2,476,000 to NTR Metals.

On May 16, 2011, the Company issued 125,000 shares of common stock to NTR Metals, LLC to settle $511,207 of outstanding obligations resulting from the purchase bullion.

On September, 2011, the Company announced that it had completed its acquisition of 100 percent of Southern Bullion Trading, LLC (SBT). A subsidiary of our refining partner NTR Metals, LLC was the majority owner of SBT. Under the terms of the acquisition, DGSE acquired SBT for 600,000 shares of restricted DGSE common stock. In connection with this transaction, NTR Metals made an equity investment in DGSE of $2 million dollars and received 400,000 DGSE restricted common shares. The proceeds of this financing will be dedicated to SBT’s operations and future expansion.

In connection with the Stanford Bank settlement, NTR Metals, LLC entered into an option contract with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board and primary shareholder to purchase 1,000,000 common shares at an exercise price of $6.00 per common share until May 25, 2014. The original terms of the option contract required NTR Metals, LLC to exercise the option in its entirety. On June 10, 2011, the terms of the option contract were modified to allow NTR Metals, LLC to exercise the option contract in increments of 100,000 shares from June 10, 2011 to July 15, 2011. The option contract was subsequently modified to extend the incremental exercise option to August 15, 2011. By August 15, 2011, NTR Metals, LLC had completed its purchase pursuant to the option agreement.

(7)	Acquisitions.

Southern Bullion Trading, LLC. On September 14, 2011, we completed our acquisition of Southern Bullion Trading, LLC, which we refer to as SBT, in exchange for the issuance of 600,000 restricted shares of the common stock of DGSE. SBT is one of the largest precious-metals chains in the Southeast, with twenty-two locations in Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina that buy and sell bullion, coins, paper money, pre-owned watches, diamonds and all forms of gold and silver.

The total purchase price has been allocated to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows:

Goodwill	$	2,798,414
Deferred tax asset		660,955
Property and other assets		848,678
Inventory		3,415,470
Liabilities assumed		(2,281,517	)
Total purchase price	$	5,442,000

In accordance with SFAS 142, the goodwill will not be amortized but instead tested for impairment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142 at least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of certain events.

The operating results of SBT have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date of September 14, 2011. We entered into this transaction seeing it as an opportunistic acquisition that would allow us to expand our operations and provide a platform for future growth.

(8) Legal proceedings.

The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit, filed by a customer alleging breach of contract and fiduciary duty amongst other allegations, which seeks damages in excess of $10,000,000. The Company proposed a settlement in the amount of $1,700,000, based on the advice of the Company’s legal counsel. Consequently, $1,700,000 was charged to operations in the accompanying 2011 financial statement.

(9) Subsequent events.

On October 25, 2011, NTR Metals, LLC entered into an option contract with the Company to purchase 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $15 per share to settle $2,500,000 of outstanding obligations resulting from bullion transactions.

DGSE COMPANIES, Inc. and Subsidiaries

In June 2008, we moved Superior Galleries’ operations from Beverly Hills to Woodland Hills, California. Superior’s principal line of business is the sale of jewelry, rare coins and bullion on a retail and wholesale basis. Superior’s retail and wholesale operations are conducted in virtually every state in the United States. Superior also conducted live and internet auctions for customers seeking to sell their own coins prior to management’s decision to discontinue the live auction operations. Superior markets its services nationwide through broadcast and print media and independent sales agents, as well as on the internet through third party websites, and through its own website at SGBH.com.

Americangoldandsilverexchange.com, the over 900 proprietary Internet sites related to the home page of Americangoldandsilverexchange.com along with our existing locations in Texas, California and South Carolina, provide customers from all over the United States with a seamless and secure way to value and sell gold, silver, rare coins, jewelry, diamonds and watches.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The following discussion addresses our most critical accounting policies, which are those that are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require significant judgment or use of complex estimates.

Inventories. Jewelry and other inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Bullion is valued at the lower-of-cost-or-market (average cost).

The Company acquires a majority of its retail jewelry inventory from individuals that is pre-owned. The Company acquires the jewelry based on its own internal estimate of the fair market value of the items offered for sale considering factors such as the current spot market prices of precious metals and current demand for the items offered for sale. Because the overall market value for precious metals fluctuates, these fluctuations could have either a positive or negative impact to the profitability of the Company. The Company monitors these fluctuations to evaluate any impairment to its retail jewelry inventory.

Impairment of Long-Lived and Amortized Intangible Assets. The Company performs impairment evaluations of its long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives, including the customer base acquired in the Superior acquisition, whenever business conditions or events indicate that those assets may be impaired. When the estimated future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets are less than the carrying value of the long-lived assets, the assets are written down to fair market value and a charge is recorded to current operations. Based on our evaluations no impairment was required as of September 30, 2011.

Impairment of Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. The Company performs its annual review at the beginning of the fourth quarter of each fiscal year.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of goodwill by estimating the future discounted cash flows of the businesses to which the goodwill relates. Estimated cash flows and related goodwill are grouped at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an operating segment or, under certain circumstances, a component of an operating segment that constitutes a business. When estimated future discounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the net assets and related goodwill, an impairment test is performed to measure and recognize the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Impairment losses, limited to the carrying value of goodwill, represent the excess of the carrying amount of a reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. In determining the estimated future cash flows, the Company considers current and projected future levels of income as well as business trends, prospects and market and economic conditions.

The Company cannot predict the occurrence of certain events that might adversely affect the carrying value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. Such events may include, but are not limited to, the impact of the economic environment, a material negative change in relationships with significant customers, or strategic decisions made in response to economic and competitive conditions.

Revenue Recognition. Revenue is generated from wholesale and retail sales of rare coins, precious metals, bullion and second-hand jewelry. The recognition of revenue varies for wholesale and retail transactions and is, in large part, dependent on the type of payment arrangements made between the parties. The Company recognizes sales on an F.O.B. shipping point basis.

DGSE COMPANIES, Inc. and Subsidiaries

The Company sells rare coins to other wholesalers/dealers within its industry on credit, generally for terms of 14 to 60 days, but in no event greater than one year. The Company grants credit to new dealers based on extensive credit evaluations and for existing dealers based on established business relationships and payment histories. The Company generally does not obtain collateral with which to secure its accounts receivable when the sale is made to a dealer. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses based on an evaluation of specific receivables and its historical experience related to credit losses.

Revenues for monetary transactions (i.e., cash and receivables) with dealers are recognized when the merchandise is shipped to the related dealer.

The Company also sells rare coins to retail customers on credit, generally for terms of 30 to 60 days, but in no event greater than one year. The Company grants credit to new retail customers based on extensive credit evaluations and for existing retail customers based on established business relationships and payment histories. When a retail customer is granted credit, the Company generally collects a payment of 25% of the sales price, establishes a payment schedule for the remaining balance and holds the merchandise as collateral as security against the customer’s receivable until all amounts due under the credit arrangement are paid in full. If the customer defaults in the payment of any amount when due, the Company may declare the customer’s obligation in default, liquidate the collateral in a commercially reasonable manner using such proceeds to extinguish the remaining balance and disburse any amount in excess of the remaining balance to the customer.

Under this retail arrangement, revenues are recognized when the customer agrees to the terms of the credit and makes the initial payment. We have a limited-in-duration money back guaranty policy (as discussed below).

In limited circumstances, the Company exchanges merchandise for similar merchandise and/or monetary consideration with both dealers and retail customers, for which the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 845 Nonmonetary Transactions. When the Company exchanges merchandise for similar merchandise and there is no monetary component to the exchange, the Company does not recognize any revenue. Instead, the basis of the merchandise relinquished becomes the basis of the merchandise received, less any indicated impairment of value of the merchandise relinquished. When the Company exchanges merchandise for similar merchandise and there is a monetary component to the exchange, the Company recognizes revenue to the extent of monetary assets received and determines the cost of sale based on the ratio of monetary assets received to monetary and non-monetary assets received multiplied by the cost of the assets surrendered.

The Company has a return policy (money-back guarantee). The policy covers retail transactions involving graded rare coins only. Customers may return graded rare coins purchased within 7 days of the receipt of the rare coins for a full refund as long as the rare coins are returned in exactly the same condition as they were delivered. In the case of rare coin sales on account, customers may cancel the sale within 7 days of making a commitment to purchase the rare coins. The receipt of a deposit and a signed purchase order evidences the commitment. Any customer may return a coin if they can demonstrate that the coin is not authentic, or there was an error in the description of a graded coin.

Revenues from the sale of consigned goods are recognized as commission income on such sale if the Company is acting as an agent for the consignor. If in the process of selling consigned goods, the Company makes an irrevocable payment to a consignor for the full amount due on the consignment and the corresponding receivable from the buyer(s) has not been collected by the Company at that payment date, the Company records that payment as a purchase and the sale of the consigned good(s) to the buyer as revenue as the Company has assumed all collection risk.

Taxes Collected From Customers. The Company’s policy is to present taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities on a net basis. The Company records the amounts collected as a current liability and relieves such liability upon remittance to the taxing authority without impacting revenues or expenses.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts requires management to estimate a customer’s ability to satisfy its obligations. The estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts is particularly critical in the Company’s wholesale coin segment where a significant amount of the Company’s trade receivables are recorded. The Company evaluates the collectability of receivables based on a combination of factors. In circumstances where the Company is aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, a specific reserve is recorded against amounts due to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. Additional reserves are established based upon the Company’s perception of the quality of the current receivables, including the length of time the receivables are past due, past experience of collectability and underlying economic conditions. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional reserves would be required.

DGSE COMPANIES, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Impairment of Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets. In evaluating the recoverability of goodwill, it is necessary to estimate the fair value of the reporting units. The estimate of fair value of intangible assets is generally determined on the basis of discounted future cash flows. The estimate of fair value of the reporting units is generally determined on the basis of discounted future cash flows supplemented by the market approach. In estimating the fair value, management must make assumptions and projections regarding such items as future cash flows, future revenues, future earnings and other factors. The assumptions used in the estimate of fair value are generally consistent with the past performance of each reporting unit and are also consistent with the projections and assumptions that are used in current operating plans. Such assumptions are subject to change as a result of changing economic and competitive conditions. The rate used to discount estimated cash flows is a rate corresponding to the Company’s cost of capital, adjusted for risk where appropriate, and is dependent upon interest rates at a point in time. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and management’s judgment in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment. It is possible that assumptions underlying the impairment analysis will change in such a manner to cause further impairment of goodwill, which could have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.

The analysis of the wholesale watch sales division resulting from the acquisition of Fairchild with a carrying value of goodwill of $837,117 resulted in no impairment as its estimated future discounted cash flows significantly exceeded the net assets and related goodwill.

Income Taxes. Income taxes are estimated for each jurisdiction in which we operate. This involves assessing the current tax exposure together with temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and financial statement accounting purposes. Any resulting deferred tax assets are evaluated for recoverability based on estimated future taxable income. To the extent that recovery is deemed not likely, a valuation allowance is recorded.

The Company records deferred income tax assets and liabilities for differences between the book basis and tax basis of the related net assets. The Company records a valuation allowance, when appropriate, to adjust deferred tax asset balances to the amount management expects to realize. Management considers, as applicable, the amount of taxable income available in carry-back years, future taxable income and potential tax planning strategies in assessing the need for a valuation allowance.

The Company accounts for its position in tax uncertainties in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The guidance establishes standards for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The guidance provides several clarifications related to uncertain tax positions. Most notably, a “more likely-than-not” standard for initial recognition of tax positions, a presumption of audit detection and a measurement of recognized tax benefits based on the largest amount that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of realization. The guidance applies a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. First, the Company must determine whether any amount of the tax benefit may be recognized. Second, the Company determines how much of the tax benefit should be recognized (this would only apply to tax positions that qualify for recognition.) No additional liabilities have been recognized as a result of the implementation. The Company has not taken a tax position that, if challenged, would have a material effect on the financial statements or the effective tax rate during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Interest costs and penalties related to income taxes are classified as interest expense and general and administrative costs, respectively, in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. It is determined not to be reasonably likely for the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. The Company is currently subject to a three year statute of limitations by major tax jurisdictions. The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 30, 2011 compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2010

Sales increased by $29,419,727 or 162.5% during the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to 2010. This increase was primarily the result of a $14,798,000, or 160.8%, increase in the sale of precious metal products and a $12,326,000, or 215.7%, increase in our jewelry sales during the second quarter of 2011 as compared to 2010. The increase in precious metal sales was a result of strong consumer demand for these products and higher gold prices. The increase in jewelry sales was due to an increase in scrap jewelry transactions during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 as compared to 2010 as well as the acquisition of SBT which accounted for approximately $3.29 million of the increase. Cost of goods as a percentage of sales increased from 84.7% in 2010 to 88.3% in 2011.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1,144,915, or 46.9%, during the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to 2010. This increase was primarily due to an increase in advertising, acquisition cost and costs incurred with our new store opening initiatives.

The Company recorded a one time $1.7 million charge to earning in connection with the legal proceeding discussed in Item 3 – “Legal proceedings” below.

The impact of the SBT acquisition on September 14, 2011 had the following impact on our financial results during the three months ended September 30, 2011:

Revenue	$	3,287,222
Operating income		466,336
Net earnings		307,782

Additionally, the Company recorded approximately $117,000 in expenses related to the SBT acquisition.

These partial period results may not be indicative of future performance by the SBT locations.

Income tax expense is directly affected by the levels of pretax income and non-deductible permanent differences.

Income taxes are provided at the rate of 35.00 % for both 2011 and 2010.

The federal income tax benefit recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily attributable to the recognition of the tax attributes related to the forgiveness of debt income that were previously unrecognizable.

Historically, changes in the market prices of precious metals have had a significant impact on both revenues and cost of sales in the rare coin and precious metals segments in which we operate. It is expected that due to the commodity nature of these products, future price changes for precious metals will continue to be indicative of our performance in these business segments. Changes in sales and cost of sales in the retail and wholesale jewelry segments are primarily influenced by the national economic environment. It is expected that this trend will continue in the future due to the nature of these product.

Nine months Ended September 30, 2011 compared to Nine months Ended September 30, 2010

Sales increased by $49,371,609 or 87.9% during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to 2010. This increase was primarily the result of a $28,058,000, or 95.8%, increase in the sale of precious metal products and a $16,427,000, or 93.7%, increase in our jewelry sales during the first nine months of 2011 as compared to 2010. The increase in precious metal sales was a result of strong consumer demand for these products and higher gold prices. The increase in jewelry sales was due to an increase in scrap jewelry transactions during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 as compared to 2010 as well as the acquisition of SBT which accounted for approximately $3.29 million of the income. Cost of goods as a percentage of sales increased from 85.6% in 2010 to 87.8% in 2011.

In May 2010, the Company undertook a complete accounting and financial reporting system conversion, replacing an older accounting system with a newer system that provides better reporting, functionality, and improved controls. Management determined the conversion requirements and the conversion process created multiple process and reporting errors in their general ledger and financial reporting modules inclusive of multiple book to physical and other inventory reconciling items, under reporting of customer deposits, and various unreconcilable errors identified when the Company performed its annual book to physical count adjustments at year end. The sum total of adjustments required to correct the effected account balances was $3,771,702 which was reflected as an adjustment to inventory impairment expense in the second quarter of 2010. These adjustments are reflected net of tax effects in our second quarter 2010 results.

DGSE COMPANIES, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1,712,985, or 22.9%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to 2010. This increase was primarily due to an increase in advertising, acquisition cost and costs incurred with our new store opening initiatives.

The Company recorded a one time $1.7 million charge to earning in connection with the legal proceeding discussed in Item 3 – “Legal proceedings” below.

The SBT acquisition on September 14, 2011 had the following impact on our financial results during the nine months ended September 30, 2011:

Revenue	$	3,287,222
Operating income		466,336
Net earnings		307,782

Additionally, the Company recorded approximately $117,000 in expenses related to the SBT acquisition.

These partial period results may not be indicative of future performance by the SBT locations.

Other income during 2010 was a result of the debt settlement transaction concluded with the Receiver in the matter of Stanford International Bank LTD offset partially by a legal settlement agreement with Superior Galleries previous landlord.

Income tax expense is directly affected by the levels of pretax income and non-deductible permanent differences.

Income taxes are provided at the rate of 35.00 % for both 2011 and 2010.

The federal income tax benefit recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily attributable to the recognition of the tax attributes related to the forgiveness of debt income that were previously unrecognizable.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, cash flows from operating activities totaled $5,286,927 and ($217,433), respectively. Cash flows from operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were primarily the result of $3.4 million in operating income, an increase in payables and accrued expenses of $3,844,780 which is primarily the result of issuing stock for certain obligations to NTR Metals, LLC.. During 2010 the ($217,433) cash flows from operating activities were primarily the result of the decrease in current liabilities ($1,808,546) which was partly offset by a 1,738,388 decrease in inventory.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 cash flows from investing activities totaled $245,101 and ($224,940), respectively. During 2011 the primary source of cash from investing activities was the result of $455,687 in cash obtained in the acquisition of SBT in September 2011 offset by purchases of property and equipment, ($218,086). During 2010 the Company invested ($287,340) in property and equipment.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 cash flows from financing activities totaled $1,566,144 and ($433,856), respectively. The use of cash during both years was the result of repayment of loans to Texas Capital Bank and the mortgage on our facility.

We expect capital expenditures to total approximately $250,000 during the next twelve months. It is anticipated that these expenditures will be funded from working capital. As of September 30, 2011 there were no commitments outstanding for capital expenditures.

In the event of significant growth in retail and or wholesale jewelry sales, the demand for additional working capital will expand due to a related need to stock additional jewelry inventory and increases in wholesale accounts receivable. Historically, vendors have offered us extended payment terms to finance the need for jewelry inventory growth and our management believes that we will continue to do so in the future. Any significant increase in wholesale accounts receivable will be financed under a new bank credit facility or from short-term loans from individuals.

DGSE COMPANIES, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Our ability to finance our operations and working capital needs are dependent upon management’s ability to negotiate extended terms or refinance its debt. We have historically renewed, extended or replaced short-term debt as it matures and management believes that we will be able to continue to do so in the near future.

From time to time, we have adjusted our inventory levels to meet seasonal demand or in order to meet working capital requirements. Management is of the opinion that if additional working capital is required, additional loans can be obtained from individuals or from commercial banks. If necessary, inventory levels may be adjusted in order to meet unforeseen working capital requirements.

On November 2, 2011, the Company announced that Texas Capital Bank has agreed to renew its current credit facility. The facility is composed of a $3.5 million revolving note and a $1.0 million term loan. The agreement was finalized on November 2, 2011. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are collateralized by a general security interest in substantially all of our assets. As of September 30, 2011, approximately $4.5 million was outstanding under the term loan and revolving credit facility. If we were to default under the terms and conditions of the revolving credit facility, Texas Capital Bank would have the right to accelerate any indebtedness outstanding and foreclose on our assets in order to satisfy our indebtedness. Such a foreclosure could have a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity, results of operations and financial position. This credit facility matures in June 2012.

The covenants associated with our credit facility with Texas Capital Bank, N.A., excluding Superior Galleries, are as follows:

As of September 30, 2011	Requirement	Actual calculation
Minimum tangible net worth	15,000,000	22,908,277
Maximum total liabilities to tangible net worth	Not to exceed 1.0	.27
Minimum debt service coverage	Must be greater than 1.40	3.26

Pursuant to the acquisition of our Dallas headquarters we assumed a new loan with a remaining principal balance of $2,323,484 and an interest rate of 6.70%. The loan has required monthly payments of $20,192 with the final payment due on August 1, 2016.

	Payments due by period
Contractual Cash Obligations	Total		2011			2012- 2013		2014– 2015	Thereafter

Notes payable	$	5,552,342	$	2,052,455	$	3,499,887	$	—	$	—
Long-term debt and capital leases		3,181,663		216,775		1,121,826		253,540		1,589,522
Operating Leases		4,786,193		405,884		2,706,511		350,727		323,071
Total	$	13,520,198	$	675,114	$	7,328,224	$	604,267	$	912,593

In addition, we estimate that we will pay approximately $356,000 in interest during the next twelve months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The following discussion about our market risk disclosures involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and gold values. We are also exposed to regulatory risk in relation to its pawn loans. We do not use derivative financial instruments.

Our earnings and financial position may be affected by changes in gold values and the resulting impact on jewelry sales. The proceeds of scrap sales and our ability to liquidate excess jewelry inventory at an acceptable margin are dependent upon gold values. The impact on our financial position and results of operations of a hypothetical change in gold values cannot be reasonably estimated.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2011, these disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rule and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. See our December 31, 2010 Form 10-K filing for specific control deficiencies.

Changes in internal controls. For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II- OTHER INFORMATION

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit, filed by a customer alleging breach of contract and fiduciary duty amongst other allegations. The Company proposed a settlement in the amount of $1,700,000, based on the advice of the Company’s legal counsel. Consequently the Company has taken a $1.7 million one time charge to earnings during the third quarter in order to establish a reserve that relates to a proposed settlement in the legal proceeding the Company became involved with as the result of its acquisition of Superior Galleries in May 2007. Though DGSE believes the suit is without merit, the Company has proposed a $1.7 million settlement in order to avoid protracted legal proceedings.

We may, from time to time, be involved in various claims, lawsuits, disputes with third parties, actions involving allegations of discrimination, or breach of contract actions incidental to the operation of its business. Except as set forth above, we are not currently involved in any such litigation which we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations, liquidity or cash flows.
