How Much Is Broken Gold Jewelry Worth?

No matter what kind of jewelry you have, gold jewelry is not 100% gold, as jewelers mix in other unique metals to support the design. It is better to get an estimated calculation of the present gold in the jewelry to get the exact amount. Look for markings that show the gold’s purity, such as 18K. Karat is a measurement of purity. 18K jewelry is comprised of 75% gold, while the remaining 25% is composed of a non-precious alloy.

Know the Current Gold Rate

Make sure you know the latest gold prices well, so you get cash according to market rates. You can check the gold price or send in your gold to have it quickly appraised by our expert, GIA-certified staff.

Check for Gemstones in Your Jewelry

Gemstones can be worth a lot, but it is never a good idea to sell attached gems with your gold jewelry. It is better to remove any gemstone, as it can affect the overall weight of the gold. Cash for Gold USA can also appraise your valuables with the gems included, if you’re not concerned about recovering their value. Those gems will be most likely melted down during the precious metal refining process.

Cash for Gold USA promises 100 percent customer satisfaction, guaranteed. If you are not completely happy with your offer for any reason whatsoever, all you have to do is decline your offer and Cash for Gold USA will return your item(s) free of charge.
