Hi all,
I’m in Annfield Plain and hoping to sell some gold and silver items for cash. I have a broken 18ct bracelet, a silver pen, and a few old coins I found while clearing my late uncle’s study. The first local offer I got seemed very low.
Any recommendations for trusted buyers nearby?
I’m nearby in Stanley and sold a few items at Northern Bullion, including a 9ct gold signet ring, a silver trinket box, and a decorative silver picture frame. Everything was tested and weighed in front of me, which made the cash offer completely transparent.
I would avoid auctions—they take ages and the fees are high. I sold a silver medal, a gold tie pin, and a miniature candleholder recently, and dealing directly once everything was tested was much easier.
I cleared my grandmother’s sideboard in Lanchester and found a silver medal, a gold mounted cameo, a small trinket box, and a pocket watch. Northern Bullion’s online calculator gave me a reliable estimate before visiting.
Watching items being tested properly makes a big difference. I sold a gold cufflink set, a silver letter opener, and an engraved desk seal recently, and having the weights and purity explained clearly made the cash offer fair.
I’ve sold a very varied mix recently including 9ct gold rings, 18ct bracelets, 925 silver chains, bullion coins, antique silver cutlery, engagement rings, silver pens, pocket watches, cigarette cases, picture frames, candleholders, snuff boxes, small trinket boxes, and miniature silver sculptures. Northern Bullion explained exactly how everything was tested and weighed, which made the whole process straightforward and fair.
