SPOTLIGHT
Steve and Trish Roberson, owners of Roberson's Fine Jewelry
in Little Rock, Ark. did not set out to be in the jewelry business.
They were opportunists in 1979 when the Hunt brothers tried
to corner the silver market. Steve partnered with Trish's dad,
Franklin Collier, and along with a few other family members
began traveling the mid-south setting up in hotel ballrooms on
the weekends buying gold and silver.
