Typical Items
We buy precious-metal items in almost any condition. They do not need to be wearable, matching, or polished.
- 9ct, 14ct, 18ct, 22ct, and 24ct gold
- Broken chains, odd earrings, damaged rings, and scrap gold
- Gold sovereigns, bars, ingots, and selected coins
- Platinum and palladium jewellery or components
- Dental gold and crowns with no biological material attached
- Mixed lots where you are unsure what is real gold
What Affects Value
For straightforward precious-metal items, the main factors are purity, weight, and the buying rate at the time of assessment. Hallmarks help identify purity, but unmarked pieces can still be checked.
We also look for value beyond the metal. A wearable piece, known maker, collectable coin, unusual design, or valuable stone may be worth assessing individually rather than as scrap.
Photos That Help
- One photo showing the whole group of items
- Close-ups of hallmarks, stamps, or writing
- Front and back views of coins, bars, or unusual pieces
- Any boxes, receipts, certificates, or paperwork
Do not clean, repair, or remove stones before asking. If you have scales, an approximate weight is useful but not required.
