We don't buy platinum jewelry, costume or plated jewelry, grain/shot, circuitboards, recovery silver, stamps, or paper currency.
Depending on the type and number of items you're looking to sell, you'll have an offer in as little as five minutes.
Large lots with many items can take significantly longer, and an appointment is recommended.
For most coin and bullion products, we also consider condition, packaging, year, certified grade, and other factors.
We use state inspected certified legal for trade scales to weigh your items. For single items weighing over 1200 grams, we may use high-precision scales which are not certified legal for trade.
"Solid" gold jewelry has the same metal content throughout.
"Plated" gold jewelry consists of a thin layer of solid gold applied over a base metal such as copper. Plated jewelry typically has very little fine gold content, and the cost of refining it can be greater than the value of the gold contained.
Common gold plating methods include gold fill, electroplating, and roll plating. Plated pieces are often marked "GF", "GP", "KGP, "HGE", or "RGP."
Most solid gold jewelry contains a karat stamp such as "10K" or "14K". Jewelry manufactured outside of the US will often bear "fineness" markings such as "417", "585", or "750" rather than a karat stamp.
However, some authentic gold jewelry is unstamped. In other cases, gold-plated jewelry has been stamped and sold as solid gold by a dishonest jeweler. We may use X-ray fluorescence or simple chemical testing to identify or confirm the metal content of marked and unmarked items.
If you see a stamp like "GF", "GP", "KGP, "HGE", or "RGP" on gold jewelry, this indicates that it is gold-plated.
Except for certain types of chains, solid gold and silver jewelry should not be magnetic. Use a strong neodymium magnet to confirm that your items are not magnetic.
While solid silver jewelry can tarnish, solid gold jewelry cannot. You can also examine gold jewelry for copper or silver colors showing through in well worn spots, which typically indicate plating.
In almost all cases, authentic silver jewelry will be stamped "925" and will not be magnetic. If you have silver colored pieces that are not stamped, or they are stamped but magnetic, it is unlikely that they are silver.
We perform non-destructive electronic testing on coins and bullion bars. If your coin is in a case, we typically do not need to remove it.
For heavy or unstamped gold jewelry, we may need to file, drill into, or even completely cut the item before finalizing the purchase. In these cases, we can first provide you with an offer.
For items containing large stones, or gold watches containing workings, we can provide a minimum offer by deducting from the gross weight of the item to account for this material. Should you wish to proceed with the sale, we will remove any non-precious-metal material and re-weigh the item.
We offer payment via cash, Zelle, check, ACH transfer, and wire transfer.
Cryptocurrency payment options coming soon!
When selling in person, we issue cash, check, or Zelle payments on the spot. ACH and wire transfers will be issued the same or next business day.
Cryptocurrency payments (coming soon) may take up to one business day, though your exchange rate won't be affected.
When selling by mail, payments are processed the same or next business day you accept our offer.
For in-store sales of jewelry and other "scrap" forms of gold and silver, we will make every effort to issue your entire payment in cash if requested. If you are anticipating a large cash payment, please contact us before coming in.
Cash payment isn't available for items which were shipped to us, or when we are purchasing goods at an off-site event or appointment.
Cash payments greater than $10,000 require the filing of an IRS Form 8300.
When selling coins or bullion, we typically only pay up to the first $1,000 in cash. If you would like to receive full payment in cash, please contact us before coming in.
If you sell us certain quantities of certain types of one ounce bullion coins or bars, we're required to file IRS Form 1099-B regardless of the form of payment. Trade-in transactions are exempt from 1099 reporting.
If you are selling items which are not secondhand goods, such as coins, bullion, or dental material, we will ask for your name and any other basic contact and banking information necessary to issue payment.
When selling secondhand goods, Florida law requires the presentation of a government-issued photo ID. We must also collect certain other identifying information as required by law.
We accept cash, cryptocurrency (coming soon), Zelle, wire transfer, ACH transfer, certified checks, debit/credit cards, and digital wallet payments (Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Google Pay).
We also accept coins, bullion, or scrap precious metals as trade-in credit toward an invoice.
Some payment methods are subject to fees or transaction limits. See our Payment Policy for details.
We offer complimentary authentication at pickup. Our primary verification tools include precision scales, the Sigma Metalytics PMV Pro, and the Niton XL2 XRF Precious Metals Analyzer.
Our minimum order is $500 per metal.

Four quick tips to help you get the most for your gold and silver.
Some buyers advertise extraordinary rates to attract customers, then understate the weight of their items when making an offer.
Florida law requires business buying and selling precious metals by weight to use "legal for trade" scales, and to register those scales with the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services for inspection.
Legal for trade scales undergo stringent testing, and must meet certification standards of the National Type Evaluation Program (NTEP). They provide the highest level of reliability and accuracy.
If a buyer misidentifies the purity of one or more of your items, you could receive significantly less. For example, "18 karat" gold jewelry contains nearly twice as much pure gold as "10 karat" gold jewelry.
While having your items examined, don't hesitate to inquire about the methods and procedures used to determine their metal content. We employ a combination of acid testing, electronic tests, visual inspection, and other techniques to help accurately determine the content of each item.
To learn more about metal content and markings, check out our purity chart.
Some precious metals buyers ask to take your items to another area or complete the testing process out of your sight. Whenever possible, examination and testing of your items should occur in your full view.
Our process enables you to remain with your items and directly witness all testing and weighing. Even if you've mailed in your items, we offer dual-camera web meetings, so your items can remain in view as they are removed from our tamper-evident packaging and examined.
If you've received an offer but aren't ready to sell, reputable precious metals buyers won't be afraid to clearly state their offer in writing.
Due to the volatility of the gold and silver markets, a buyer may only be able to guarantee an offer for a limited time, or only while gold or silver are within a given price range.
A meaningful written offer should include the metal type, content, and weight of your items, along with the current market price of gold or silver. If a buyer refuses to extend any details of their offer in writing, it's best to check elsewhere.
