How Much Will I Get for My Gold?
Your offer comes down to four things:
- Weight. Gold is priced by the troy ounce. One troy ounce is 31.1 grams, a little heavier than a regular ounce.
- Purity. 14K jewelry is 58.3% gold, so a 10-gram 14K chain holds about 5.8 grams of pure gold.
- Today’s spot price. The live market price of gold, which changes throughout the day.
- Form. Recognized bullion sells closest to spot. Jewelry is valued on its gold content. Rare coins can be worth more than their gold.
We show you the weight and purity of every piece, so you can see exactly where the number comes from. Curious where the market is today? Check the current gold price.
How to Read Your Gold Karat Stamp
Look for a tiny stamp inside a ring band or near a necklace clasp.
| Karat stamp | Also stamped | Gold content |
|---|---|---|
| 24K | 999 | 99.9% |
| 22K | 916 / 917 | 91.7% |
| 18K | 750 | 75% |
| 14K | 585 | 58.3% |
| 10K | 417 | 41.7% |
No stamp? Bring it anyway. We test every piece.
Coins, Bars, or Jewelry: How Each Is Valued
Not all gold is priced the same way. Here’s what we look at for each type.
| What you’re selling | How it’s valued | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Gold bullion coins & bars | Gold content at today’s spot price. Recognized products get the strongest offers. | Bring any assay cards or original packaging. |
| Gold jewelry & scrap | Pure gold content, based on weight and karat. | Stones don’t add gold value, but tell us about designer or signed pieces. |
| Pre-1933 & rare gold coins | Gold value or collector value, whichever is higher. | Don’t clean them. Cleaning can wipe out collector value. |
What to Bring When You Sell Gold
- A valid driver’s license or state ID
- The gold you want to sell, even pieces you’re unsure about
- Any assay cards, certificates, or original boxes
- Receipts or appraisals, if you have them
Do You Need ID to Sell Gold in Texas?
Yes, for jewelry and other crafted gold. Texas law requires precious metal dealers to record the seller’s name, address, and driver’s license or state ID number, along with a description of the items (Texas Occupations Code §1956.062). It’s there to keep stolen property off the market, and it protects you as the seller, too.

Selling Gold: Frequently Asked Questions
How much will I get for my gold?
It depends on the weight, the purity (karat), today’s gold spot price, and the form your gold is in. Bullion coins and bars get offers closest to spot. Jewelry is valued on its pure gold content. We test and weigh every piece in front of you and explain how we arrived at the offer.
What kinds of gold do you buy?
Gold coins (American Eagles, Buffaloes, Maple Leafs, Krugerrands, and pre-1933 U.S. gold), gold bars and rounds from any recognized refiner, and gold jewelry in 10K through 24K, including broken and scrap pieces. Call (469) 388-1004 if you’re not sure about something.
Do you buy broken or scrap gold jewelry?
Yes. Broken chains, single earrings, bent rings, and out-of-style pieces are valued the same way as intact jewelry: by their gold content.
Do I need ID to sell gold in Texas?
Yes, for jewelry and other crafted gold. Texas law requires us to record your name, address, and driver’s license or state ID number. Bring a valid ID to your appointment.
How do I know what karat my gold is?
Look for a small stamp such as 10K, 14K, or 18K, or a number like 417, 585, or 750. No stamp? Bring it in anyway. We test every piece.
Do I have to sell if I come in for an offer?
No. The evaluation is free and there’s no obligation. If you don’t like the offer, you take your gold home.
Do you buy rare and pre-1933 gold coins?
Yes. Older U.S. gold can be worth more than its melt value, and we’ll tell you when it is. Please don’t clean your coins before bringing them in. See our rare coins page for more.
Do you pay the same day?
Yes. If you accept our offer, you’re paid the same day.
