How Selling Works
- Bring your items in. No appointment needed during showroom hours, Monday to Thursday, 10 AM to 4 PM. Friday 10 AM to 2 PM. For large collections, call ahead so we can set aside time.
- We test and weigh in front of you. We’ll identify the metal, karat, or coin, weigh it, and explain how we arrived at our offer. Scrap gold is priced by pennyweight using our live market prices.
- Get paid the same day. If you accept our offer, we pay you on the spot by cash or check, our choice. If you’d rather think it over or shop around, that’s completely fine.
What to Bring
- A valid government-issued photo ID.
- Your items. There’s no need to clean coins, which can actually lower their value.
Why Sell to Jefferson Coin
Many companies offer to buy gold and silver, and not all of them pay a fair price. We’ve been doing this for over 60 years. You won’t get the bait-and-switch routine here, where a business quotes one price online or over the phone and then makes a lower offer once you’re in the shop.
Our prices are based on real-time market data, updated around the clock. If you think you can get a better price elsewhere, go ahead and shop around. We’re confident in our offers and look forward to working with you.
Common Questions
How do you determine your offer?
For gold and silver, we base offers on the metal’s purity, its weight, and the current spot price. For coins and collections, we also consider rarity, condition, and collector demand, which can make some items worth far more than their metal value.
Do you buy broken or unwanted jewelry?
Yes. Broken chains, single earrings, and outdated pieces are all welcome. Gold is valued by its karat and weight, not its condition.
Do you buy coin collections?
Yes, from a few coins to entire estates.
Do I need an appointment?
Not for most visits. Just come in during showroom hours. For large collections, please call ahead at (434) 979-2646.
