What Precious Metals Can I Sell?

Gold
Yellow, white and rose gold jewelry, broken pieces, scrap and dental gold, coins and bullion.
Silver
Sterling silver jewelry, eligible silverware, scrap silver, silver coins and bullion.
Platinum

Can I sell gold, silver and platinum together? Yes. You can include eligible items made from different metals in one Appraisal Kit. You don’t need to identify every metal or know its purity before getting started. If you have an unusual, heavy or bulky item, call us before shipping to confirm how to send it.
How Can I Identify Precious Metals Before Selling?
Hallmarks and simple observations can help give you an idea, but a professional evaluation is needed to confirm metal type, purity and value.
-
Look for hallmarks
Stamps such as 10K, 14K, 925 or PLAT can offer clues about an item’s metal and purity. Markings can also wear away or be inaccurate.
-
Try a magnet
A clasp or another component may be magnetic even when the rest of the piece is not. If nothing responds to the magnet, that alone does not prove the item contains precious metal.
-
Leave the final testing to Sell Your Gold
Our trained appraisers test the items you send to identify their metal and assess purity. You don’t need to scratch or acid-test anything at home.
