Texas also accepts gold and silver as legal tender.

From Grok ...

Yes, Texas accepts gold and silver as legal tender. The Texas Bullion Depository, established by House Bill 483 in 2015 and opened in 2018, allows gold and silver to be used as legal tender within the state. Specifically, Texas Government Code Section 2116.023 states that gold and silver bullion deposited in the Texas Bullion Depository are considered legal tender for all debts, public and private, within Texas. This applies to bullion meeting specific purity standards (e.g., 99.5% for gold, 99.9% for silver) and issued by the depository in forms like coins or bars. However, federal law still governs transactions involving U.S. currency, and the practical use of gold and silver as legal tender is limited by market acceptance and federal regulations. For example, their value in transactions is typically based on their market value in U.S. dollars at the time of the transaction.
