Have Broken Gold Jewelry? How to Sell Gold Jewelry for Cash

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.

Check for Gemstones in Your Jewelry

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.
