Guide to How to Determine the Purity and Value of Your Jewelry

Welcome to our resource guide on how to determine the purity and value of your jewelry, including broken or damaged pieces. At American Rare Coin & Gold, we believe in empowering our customers with knowledge so they can make informed decisions about selling their jewelry. Here are some factors to consider when determining the purity and value of your jewelry:

1. Metal Type: The metal type is the first factor to consider when determining the purity and value of your jewelry. Gold, silver, and platinum are the most common types of jewelry metals.
2. Purity: The purity of the metal is measured in karats (K) for gold, silver and platinum. Pure gold is 24K, and is rare to find on jewelry.  The most common karat for jewelry is 10k, 14k or 18k.
3. Weight: The weight of your jewelry is another important factor to consider. The heavier the piece, the more valuable it is likely to be.
4. Design and Workmanship: The design and workmanship of your jewelry can also influence its value. Intricate designs and skilled craftsmanship can increase the value of your jewelry.
5. Current Market Prices: Finally, it's important to consider the current market prices for the metal type and purity of your jewelry. Market prices can fluctuate, so it's important to stay up-to-date on the latest trends.

It's important to note that broken or damaged gold, silver, and platinum jewelry can also have value. Our company understands that jewelry can be fragile and accidents happen.
