HOW TO GET A FAIR PRICE WHEN SELLING YOUR GOLD

fair-price-gold-coinsWhen and if the time comes that you are ready to sell your gold for cash, there are many things to take into consideration before actually doing so. The most important thing is to make sure you are getting a fair valuation based on the latest price of gold. You also want to make sure you are selling to a reputable dealer and not some fly-by-night shyster.

You can trust Bellevue Rare Coins, a gold buying and selling leader with a long, reputable history in the greater Seattle area. We are members of both of the top coin certification and authentication services in the U.S. – the Professional Coin Grading Service and the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation – and have been buying and selling various forms of gold for years, including:

  • Bullion
  • Coins
  • Antiques
  • Chains
  • Necklaces
  • Bracelets
  • Earrings
  • Watches
  • Flatware
  • And Much More

Four-Step Evaluation Process

Step 1: Explain
At Bellevue Rare Coins, we take the time to explain our evaluation process before we begin. The explanation, which will only take a few minutes, will help you understand the three factors on which we price gold:

  • Condition
  • Current Market Prices
  • Intrinsic Value

Step 2: Examine
The next step is examining the metal’s weight and purity. There are two ways to go about this:

  • Most handmade jewelry will have an identifying marker or stamp indicating the amount of precious metal it contains
  • If not, we have more advanced methods for determining the precious metal content of your items

Step 3: Assess
We deal with more than just gold, and know the value of gemstones which might be in your jewelry as well. Some other dealers may just price your jewelry by its gold count without taking into account other factors. We are experts at not only evaluating coins, but also jewelry and estate items. Our assessment experts always take into account an item’s collectability, if applicable.

Step 4: Offer
We will give you an honest offer based on the current market value, with no pressure for you to accept. In fact, we encourage you to think about it and even check around; we’re pretty sure you’ll end up coming back after you hear other offers. We will pay you in cash or with a check, whatever you prefer.
