Selling Gold Helps Your Finances While Helping the Economy

At Valley Goldmine OKC we can do a large part to help your personal finances and we’d like to think we are doing our patriotic duty and helping to stimulate the national economy. Selling your old gold or silver jewelry and coins can be just the thing to put needed money into your pocket and back into the economy.

With all the talk about needing to energize the economy and the markets being shaky it makes sense to take a few things into consideration. The economy needs money to be spent and people need to find a revenue source so they can spend it. One of the places to look for revenue that you might not even realize you have is in your jewelry box, old shoe box, safety deposit box or up in your attic.

For years people have held onto old rings, necklaces that are out of style, earrings that have lost their mates and bracelets that have broken clasps. It’s time to find out what the value really can be. The reality is that if these things are gold or silver they are worth a significant amount of money. It’s the dollars that you need to help your own finances and money that can be put back into the economy.

9 out of 10 clients tell us that, “They can’t believe how much their pieces were worth.” They had it for years and never realized it! Make an appointment today and start stimulating your own bank account.

Helpful Hints to Selling Your Gold in OKC

If you are looking to take advantage of the record gold prices and want to see how much your old jewelry (gold and silver) are worth, here are a few tips to remember:

1. Separate your pieces out to see what kind of potential profit you will have. Most gold and silver pieces will be stamped. With gold it will typically have 10k, 14k or 18k on it. This indicates the amount of gold in each piece. The higher the number the more gold the piece has in it. The different amounts of gold in jewelry pieces are:

24 K Gold Jewelry – 99.99% fine gold.
22 K Gold Jewelry – making it 91.7% gold.
18 K Gold Jewelry – making it 75% gold.
14 K Gold Jewelry – making it 58.3% gold.
12 K Gold Jewelry – making it 50% gold.
10 K Gold Jewelry – making it 41.7% gold.

Silver will have .925, Sterling or Ster stamped on it which indicates it is 92.5% silver. Silver is also really high right now so there is the potential for a large payday with silver. Also, old pieces of flatware that are stamped Sterling or Ster are 92.5% silver and because of their sizable weight can really add up to some great money.

2. Go to more than one gold buyer in OKC. Gold and silver are so high that chances are if you have a few pieces you have something of extreme value. Gold buyers that have high overhead have to buy your gold for less so they can pay their large expenses (spots in the mall, giving away iPads, multiple employees, etc., all make for lower payouts). We see people all the time that shop around and are more than pleased when they find out how much more they made coming to Valley Goldmine OKC. Just this weekend we paid a couple over $300.00 more than they were offered from the guys right down the street and the buyer swore to them they wouldn’t get a better price…I guess it pays to shop around!

3. If you can, bring a friend with you that wants to sell their gold and silver too. Because we sell to the refinery in bulk, you will get an even better price if you come in with one or more people.

4. Look for items that you might not think of when you come to sell your jewelry. Old gold dental work, silver coins before 1965, class rings that are stamped 10k, gold coins…you get the picture. It’s not just jewelry that has precious metals value, it’s anything gold and silver.

We hope this helps. Give us a call at 405.753.5356 and we’ll give you an equitable assessment for your items and pay you more than you can expect anywhere in OKC! See you soon.
