What We Buy

Virginia Gold Buyer purchases precious metals in many forms, with a primary focus on gold jewelry. Below are the main categories we work with. If you’re unsure whether your items qualify, a quick phone call is the best place to start.

Gold jewelry (broken or intact)

Gold jewelry makes up the majority of what we purchase. We buy all karats — 10k, 14k, 18k, and 24k — whether pieces are broken, mismatched, or no longer worn.

Accepted items include:
• Rings, necklaces, bracelets, and chains
• Single earrings and mismatched pairs
• Broken or damaged gold jewelry

Value is determined by purity, weight, and current market pricing, not appearance.

Coins and bullion

We purchase select gold and silver coins and bullion, including:
• Gold and silver coins (including Eagles)
• Silver rounds
• Investment-grade bullion bars

Availability and pricing for coins and bullion can vary, so calling first is recommended to confirm eligibility.

Sterling Silver & Flatware

We accept .925 sterling silver items, including:
• Sterling silver jewelry
• Antique or vintage flatware
• Serving pieces, trophies, and miscellaneous sterling items

Plated items generally do not qualify, but we’re happy to help identify what you have.
