| Question: I’ve been watching the news and following the prices of gold and silver. They seem to be much higher than they were a few years ago. I have some old gold jewelry I don’t wear anymore, a large sterling silver flatware set, and some gold and silver coins. Do you think it’s the right time to sell? I hope you can help me. B.K. from California
Answer: By reviewing the current prices on gold you may be surprised that price of gold has almost tripled from just a few years ago. Silver is trading three to four times its price from that same time period. It’s not only a good time to sell, it’s a great time to sell your items. The value of your gold will be determined by their gold content. While most pieces have some type of quality or pureness mark on them many times the pieces are not marked. No need to worry, our expert evaluators are trained to test each piece of gold for its purity. So if you have a piece of jewelry that is not marked but you think its gold, send it with your shipment. Pure gold is 24K or 100% pure. It is also very soft so jewelry makers add other metals to pure gold to make it harder and more durable. That’s why we have 10k, 14k, and 18k gold. Their purity level is lower but they are much stronger that pure gold. We buy all types of gold, even damaged and broken jewelry. Old gold jewelry is the most popular item people send to us. Gold is in record price territory.
Your sterling silver set will also bring you a very good price. Every piece of sterling silver flatware should be marked. Look for the word STERLING or three digit numbers like .800, .835, .900, .925, and .999 on silver pieces. Large sets can bring several hundred dollars. We also buy sterling silver tea sets, bowls, trays, candlesticks and jewelry. Be careful for pieces marked Sterling Silver Weighted or Reinforced. These pieces are filled with a plaster or resin filler and do not have much silver value. Pieces marked with two digits such as 80 or 90 are almost always silver plated and are not silver. Take advantage of the high silver prices and send that sterling silver flatware set in to us.
As you know, we are always buying United States gold coins as well as Foreign gold coins. We are constantly monitoring the world gold markets so we can pay you prices based on the most current gold market values. Gold coins today are bringing double to triple what you would have received just a few years ago. Your timing is perfect for selling those gold coins.
Gather up all your old United States 90% and 40% silver coins. We also buy silver bars and ingots. They may be marked .925, .999, and Sterling Silver or Pure Silver. We also buy all Franklin Mint medallions, medals, coin sets, plates, ingots, and other silver items. Remember, we buy silver and sterling silver from any maker or manufacturer.
