Three Items You Can Sell To Gold Buyers

Posted on

Gold is perhaps the most storied precious metal in human history. As long as civilization has existed, gold has fascinated human beings. In addition, gold has virtually always had a significant monetary value. For this reason, you can always find gold buyers for any gold you own. 

Of course, not everyone happens to have gold bars or gold coins lying around. Fortunately, gold dealers purchase all kinds of gold items. This article looks at three common items that you can sell to a gold buyer.

Dental Scrap

Dentists have used gold bridges and crowns on their patients for many years. Perhaps you have had a gold crown or bridge that has reached the end of its usefulness. If so, make sure to get the dental gold from your dentists after it's removed. You might also come across dental gold that a family member left in an old drawer or put away somewhere. 

Dental gold is definitely valuable, although the price you will get from a gold buyer can vary. The price depends on the purity of the gold and the weight of the crown or bridge, as well as the current market price of gold. If you decide to sell any dental scrap, take the item or items to several reputable gold dealers and get a quote from each one before choosing a buyer.

Wedding Rings

Marriage vows indicate a union that lasts until death, but sadly, many marriages end because of divorce. When a divorce happens, some spouses might not want to keep any reminders of their broken marriage, such as a wedding ring. Even though a gold wedding band might not have any sentimental value after a marriage breaks up, it still has a monetary value. As with dental scrap, the financial value of a gold band depends on the weight, purity, and market price of gold.

Electronics

Did you know that many electronic devices contain some gold? Computers, laptops, and smartphones may all contain some small amount of gold. For instance, an old computer might have ⅓ gram of gold inside. The gold is often on components such as the motherboard or internal modem. The amount of gold in any single electronic device is relatively small, but if you happen to have a large amount of old and inoperative electronic devices in your possession, you might consider removing the gold and selling it.
