What could your metal be worth?

Estimate 80% of gold or silver melt value. Weight and purity must be verified by the Idaho Pawn & Gold team in Idaho.

80%of melt value

A current market reference is unavailable. Enter your own spot price to explore an illustration, or request a review.

Choose a valid spot price to calculate.

This is not a locked offer. Use metal-only weight: stones, nonmetal parts and plating are not payable as solid gold or silver. Final value depends on verified content and the agreed market price at evaluation. Any shipping, insurance, return costs or other deductions must be agreed before you send an item.

Designer, diamond or collectible piece?

Rolex watches, Louis Vuitton items, designer jewelry, diamonds and collectible coins can have value beyond metal content. Send photos for a separate evaluation; the melt calculator does not price these premiums.

THE LOCAL ROUTE · SANTA ANA CALIFORNIA

Compare before you decide.

The reviewed option is in Costa Mesa rather than Santa Ana. Ask about watch and diamond evaluation before choosing a counter for a mixed jewelry lot.

Before you go

  • Can the Costa Mesa location assess the watch as a working timepiece rather than only precious metal?
  • How will diamonds and any non-metal components be treated in my offer?

Keep the details.
Lose the guesswork.

Start your Santa Ana inquiry online. Your inquiry is reviewed by the Idaho Pawn team. We will discuss what is possible before arranging any visit, shipment or payment.

  1. Show us what you have.

    Upload clear photos and include markings, weight and any paperwork you already have.

  2. Review the reference.

    Compare the catalog's buy and sell indications. Metal content is useful context; collectible value and condition need an individual look.

  3. Agree on the next step.

    Keep your item until the team confirms the evaluation and handling arrangements with you.

THE SANTA ANA NOTEBOOK

Several hallmarks in one jewelry lot

Take one clear photo of each distinct hallmark and label the piece it belongs to. Include letters and symbols, not just numbers, so important qualifiers are preserved.
