Spot is what one troy ounce of pure metal trades for on the market. It is a reference point, not our offer.
Is this page for you?
It is if you hold gold or silver that was bought for the metal, not as a collectible.
- You stacked bars or rounds over the years and want to sell some or all of them.
- You found bullion in a gun safe or a closet while settling a family estate. Our estate coins page walks through selling for an estate.
- You own Gold or Silver Eagles, Buffalos, Maple Leafs or Krugerrands, in tubes, boxes or loose.
- Older coins share the same box. Pre-1965 silver has its own silver coins page, and U.S. gold from before 1933 is on the gold coins page.
What decides the value of bullion
Collector demand rarely enters into it. The metal, and the marks that describe it, do nearly all the work.
-
Weight
Bullion is weighed in troy ounces, about 31.1 grams each. That is heavier than the ounce your kitchen scale uses, so the two never match.
-
Fineness
Purity is stamped in thousandths: .999 means 999 parts of every 1,000 are fine metal, and .9999 adds one more nine.
-
Maker and marks
A refiner's name or logo, the weight, the fineness and often a serial number. When every mark is crisp and agrees, a piece is quick to confirm.
Gold and silver are counted separately
An ounce of gold is worth many times an ounce of silver. A one-ounce gold coin and a hundred-ounce silver bar can land in the same neighborhood, so each metal is weighed and figured on its own.
Bars, rounds and government bullion coins
We buy gold and silver in each of these three forms, in any mix.
-
Bars
Anything from a one-gram gold wafer to a hundred-ounce silver brick. Poured bars have rough, rippled tops; pressed or minted bars are flat and sharp-edged.
-
Rounds
Coin-shaped silver or gold from private mints such as Sunshine or Engelhard. They are not money, so their value rests on weight and fineness.
-
Government bullion coins
Gold and Silver Eagles, Gold Buffalos, Canadian Maple Leafs, South African Krugerrands, British Britannias and Austrian Philharmonics, in every size.
Holding bars, rounds or Eagles?
Call or send the short form with a rough count and whether it is gold, silver or both. We will set a weekday time and weigh everything with you at the table.
Big-name refiners and generic pieces
We buy both, and both are judged on weight and fineness.
From a major refiner or national mint
- Names such as PAMP Suisse, Valcambi, Perth Mint, Royal Canadian Mint, Johnson Matthey or Engelhard
- A serial number that matches the assay card
- Weight and fineness struck cleanly into the metal
Generic bars and rounds
- From smaller or less familiar private mints
- Often no serial number, card or original packaging
- Valued on weight and fineness once the metal is confirmed
Generic does not mean suspect
It simply means the maker is less familiar, so the metal gets a closer look before we talk about an offer.
How we look at bars, rounds and bullion coins
-
Identify each piece
First we pin down what you have: the coin, its date and mint letter, or the stamps on a bar or round.
-
Gold and silver weighed where you can see it
The scale sits in plain view, so you see every reading.
-
Weigh collector value against melt
Most silver is priced by weight and purity. Where a coin carries collector value too, we point it out.
-
Walk you through the offer
You hear how we reached the number. Then take it, turn it down, or sell just some of the items.
What to bring
- The bullion, in whatever tubes, boxes, sleeves or capsules it came in
- Assay cards, still sealed
- Purchase receipts or invoices, if you still have them
- A valid photo ID
Leave it as it is
Silver bars and rounds often pick up toning or small white milk spots with age. Cleaning adds no metal and can scratch the surface, so please bring them untouched.
Until the appointment, let tubes stay capped and bars stay in their sleeves. Loose pieces knocking together in a bag pick up marks.
Worth mentioning when you call
- Monster boxes. A sealed U.S. Mint box of 500 Silver Eagles is easy to count, so just tell us how many boxes you have.
- Poured or homemade bars. Pieces with no maker's mark take a little longer to confirm, and knowing ahead lets us plan for it.
- Graded bullion coins. An Eagle sealed in a grading slab can interest collectors beyond its metal, so keep slabs closed and mention them.
- Where to meet. A large or heavy holding is often easier to handle at your bank or your home than in the car.
How a bullion appointment goes
Four steps from first contact to your decision. A spouse, relative or friend is welcome to sit in.
-
Tell us what you have
Call or use the request form with a rough count and the metal. Form requests get a call back during business hours to set a time.
-
Pick a weekday slot
Appointments run Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, by appointment. A large holding can be split across two visits if that suits you better.
-
Go through it together
We look at every bar, round and coin with you, weigh it where you can watch, and explain each figure as we go.
-
Accept, decline or sell part
The offer is yours to take or leave. Selling a few tubes now and keeping the rest is perfectly fine.
Photos of the stamps help
You can attach up to four photos to the request form. Close shots of the weight, fineness and maker's mark are the most useful ones. Send Photos

Common questions about selling bullion
My bar is sealed in an assay card. Should I take it out?
Please do not. A sealed card, the serial number printed on it and the bar inside all back each other up. Bring it exactly as it is.
Do you buy fractional coins, like a tenth-ounce Gold Eagle?
Yes. Tenth, quarter and half-ounce coins are bought the same way as full ounces, by their gold content, and we weigh each one where you can watch.
What about Maple Leafs, Krugerrands and other foreign bullion?
We buy them. Canadian, South African, British, Austrian and Chinese bullion coins are judged on weight and fineness like any other bullion.
I lost the receipts. Can I still sell?
Yes. Receipts and invoices help if you have them. If they are long gone, bring the bullion anyway and tell us what you remember about where it came from.
Is a bar from a little-known mint still worth selling?
Yes. Once the metal checks out, an unbranded bar or round is valued on its weight and fineness like any other.
What ID do I need?
A valid photo ID such as a driver's license, a state ID card or a military ID. We ask every seller for one, whatever they are selling.
