Selling gold has never been easier. Jamaica Pawn Shop & Gold Buyers pays competitive cash for gold jewelry, coins, bullion, and scrap gold. Whether you have a broken gold chain, an old class ring, or a collection of gold coins, we offer free evaluations and same-day payment with no obligation to sell.

Gold prices change daily based on the global market spot price. We calculate your offer based on the current rate, the karat purity of your gold, and the exact weight. Everything is done transparently — you see the testing, the weighing, and the math before you decide.

What Affects the Value of Your Gold

Several factors determine how much cash you receive for your gold. Karat purity is the most important — 24K gold is 99.9% pure, while 14K is 58.3% pure. Higher purity means higher value per gram.

Weight is the second factor — more gold means more value. We weigh in grams or pennyweights on a calibrated digital scale. The current market spot price of gold fluctuates throughout the day, and we use real-time pricing to ensure a fair offer.

  • Karat purity (24K, 22K, 18K, 14K, 10K) tested professionally
  • Calibrated digital scale weighing in grams or pennyweights
  • Real-time spot price from live market data
  • Designer and antique pieces may be worth more than melt value

Items We Accept

  • Gold jewelry (all karats: 10K, 14K, 18K, 22K, 24K)
  • Broken or damaged gold jewelry
  • Gold coins and bullion
  • Gold watches and watch bands
  • Dental gold and gold charms

Items We Don't Accept

  • Gold-plated items (very thin gold layer over base metal)
  • Costume jewelry
  • Gold-filled items (lower gold content than solid gold)

What to Bring

  • Valid photo ID (required by NYC law)
  • Any original receipts or certificates
  • Any appraisals or documentation
  • Original boxes or packaging (if available)
