The collector’s catalog
Precious metal
We consider gold jewelry of every style and condition, including rings, chains, bracelets, pendants, charms, earrings, watches, dental gold, and scrap. A piece does not need to be perfect to be worth evaluating.
What to bring
Bring pieces together if you can—single earrings, tangled chains, worn rings, broken clasps, charms, watches, and jewelry marked 10K, 14K, 18K, or 24K are all welcome.
Numismatic material
We welcome United States and world coins, paper currency, bullion, proof sets, mint sets, commemoratives, and distinctive numismatic material. Dates, mint marks, condition, and historical context can all influence interest.
What to bring
Bring coins in their holders, albums, rolls, or envelopes when possible. Please avoid cleaning coins before an evaluation, since original surfaces can matter to collectors.
Sterling & more
From sterling jewelry to silver flatware and collectible objects, we examine both metal content and the individual story of the piece. Pattern, maker, completeness, and condition can all matter.
What to bring
Bring sterling flatware sets, serving pieces, trays, hollowware, jewelry, silver coins, and pieces bearing Sterling, 925, or maker’s marks.
Fine jewelry
Platinum is valued for its durability, rarity, and place in fine jewelry. We carefully consider its material content alongside craftsmanship, stones, and design.
What to bring
Bring platinum rings, bands, settings, earrings, and other jewelry. A hallmark can help, but unmarked pieces can still be evaluated.
Fine stones
We consider diamond jewelry and loose diamonds with attention to their setting, condition, distinctive characteristics, and overall appeal.
What to bring
Bring diamond rings, earrings, pendants, bracelets, loose stones, and any available grading reports or original paperwork.
Timepieces
We welcome collectible watches, including Rolex, and evaluate model, condition, originality, accompanying accessories, and collector interest.
What to bring
Bring the watch, box, papers, service records, spare links, and any accessories you have. They can provide useful context.
Objects with history
We consider distinctive antique objects and jewelry with an eye for material, age, workmanship, provenance, and collector appeal. If it has been in the family for years, it is worth a closer look.
What to bring
Bring small antiques, decorative objects, jewelry, watches, medals, and collectibles that may have a maker’s mark or a family story attached.
Inherited collections
Estate collections deserve time and care. We help families understand what they have and consider each collection respectfully—whether it includes a few keepsakes or a larger assortment.
What to bring
Bring inherited jewelry, coins, medals, small valuables, and any available boxes, notes, receipts, appraisals, or family context.
Condition considered
Condition does not determine whether something deserves an evaluation. Old, worn, incomplete, and broken jewelry can still hold precious-metal or collector value.
What to bring
Bring it as it is: mismatched earrings, bent rings, broken clasps, tangled necklaces, loose fragments, and incomplete pieces are all welcome.
Prepare for your visit
We cannot determine an item’s value from a photo or a description alone. Bringing the item in lets us consider its details carefully—at no pressure to sell.
