Jewelry Appraisals for Insurance
We Buy Gold, Silver or Platinum Jewelry, Silverware and Diamonds. Many people are unsure of how to sell their unwanted jewelry and/or silverware. They would rather not sell it if it meant having to go to a grungy pawn shop with unsavory proprietors. At Pacific Precious Metals, we provide an upscale, transparent, fair, and discreet environment for individuals, or estates, to liquidate unwanted precious metals. We test items using x-ray fluorescence analysis that will show all the metals in your items and the exact percentage of each. We have two offices to serve you: In the heart of Silicon Valley in Cupertino and just north of San Francisco in Sausalito. No appointment is needed.
Individuals
Pacific Precious Metals buys all types of unwanted gold jewelry, silver jewelry, platinum jewelry, placer gold, silver flatware, holloware, tea sets, etc. The condition, brand, or design is not important as we simply buy it for its precious metal content. As such, our process to determine the value is based upon purity, weight and the spot price of gold silver or platinum. We use x-ray fluorescence technology to determine the percentage and type of metals in each and every piece. The test results tell us the precious metal purity of your items. We weigh the items in front of you, on government certified scales and we use the spot price of gold, silver, or platinum at that very moment to determine the value of your items. The process is fast and transparent. We explain everything we are doing each step of the way. A few items will only take 5-10 minutes from start to finish. And we encourage you to ask any questions you may have – we are happy to explain the details.

Estates
We assist probate attorneys, estate lawyers, and estate executors with the valuation and/or liquidation of items containing precious metals.
Many estates find it easier to liquidate jewelry or silverware rather than trying to divide it up among the beneficiaries. Nevertheless, we often perform estate valuations for jewelry, coins, silverware or other items. Our turn around time will depend up on the number of items and the type of service needed, but usually can be done in 1-3 days. We use x-ray fluorescence technology to determine the percentage and type of metals in each and every piece. The test results tell us the precious metal purity of your items.
