How much is gold worth?
Gold value depends on three main factors: karat purity (10k, 14k, 18k, 24k), weight in grams, and the current market price of gold. Higher karat gold contains more pure gold and is worth more per gram.
What types of gold items can be evaluated?
Items commonly evaluated include gold jewelry (rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings), broken jewelry, gold coins, bullion bars and rounds, estate jewelry, dental gold, and gold watches.
Are coin collections valuable?
Some coin collections contain bullion coins whose value follows the gold or silver market. Others may have numismatic value depending on rarity, mint year, and condition. A licensed evaluator can assess both the metal content and collector value of your coins.
Is silver flatware valuable?
Sterling silver flatware (marked .925 or "Sterling") typically has significant value based on silver weight and current silver prices. Silver-plated flatware usually has little intrinsic metal value.
How do gold buyers calculate value?
Professional evaluators test the karat purity of gold items, weigh them on a precision scale, and calculate value using the current market price. The formula is: weight x purity percentage x spot price per gram.
How can I tell if my jewelry is real gold?
Look for stamps such as 10k, 14k, 18k, 22k, 24k, or numeric stamps like 417, 585, 750, 916, or 999. A professional evaluator can test items using acid testing or electronic testing equipment for a definitive answer.
How much is 14k gold worth?
14k gold contains 58.3% pure gold. Its value per gram depends on the current gold spot price. For example, if gold is at a given spot price, 14k gold is worth 58.3% of that price per gram of total weight.
