Why the change in buying?

Important Update on Coins & Bullion Purchases

Due to recent changes imposed by our refiner, we’ve had to adjust how—and what—we purchase when it comes to coins and bullion.

Because of today’s historically high gold and silver prices, our refiner has changed their payment terms in a way that shifts market risk from them to dealers like us.

What’s Changed?

Previously:

  • We bought your coin or bullion

  • Sold it to our refiner the same day

  • Were paid the same day

Then:

  • We bought your coin or bullion

  • Sold it the same day

  • Payment was locked in but paid about a week later

As of January 26, 2026:

  • We buy your item and submit it to the refiner

  • Gold: Payment is based on the gold price 10 days later

  • Silver: Payment is based on the silver price up to 6 weeks later

The payout price and rate are determined at the time the refiner pays us, not when we receive your item.

Why This Matters

That sequence isn’t great, for us or you the customer. Metal prices can change significantly in that time, and we also can’t predict what payout rate the refiner will be offering when payment is issued. This makes it very difficult to responsibly price certain coins and bullion.

Because of this, we are currently:

  • Buying only specific types of coins and bullion

  • Limiting quantities in some cases

If we can make a purchase from you, you still get paid today. However we may not be able to buy everything that we could before.

Please review the options below, and feel free to contact us with any questions. We’re always happy to explain what we’re buying and why—our goal is to stay fair, transparent, and financially responsible for everyone involved.

 

Gold Jewelry

Gold jewelry remains unaffected since we have to hold it per the state laws anyway. Bring in any and all quantities of gold jewelry. You still get paid today for jewelry we buy from you.

Gold, Silver, Platinum Bullion/Coins

We will be limiting the type and quantity of gold and silver coins and bullion for the immediate future. Please call ahead to see if we can make you an offer on what you have.

For bullion, please have the metal type, weight, and quantity available.

For coins, please have the metal type, year, denomination, and quantity available.

90% Silver US Mint coins are on pause as well. This includes Peace and Morgan silver dollars, half dollars, quarters, and dimes.

Sterling silver flatware can be purchased at a reduced rate.

How long will this last?

Frankly, we’re not sure. But as soon as things change we will update you on our website here.
