We Buy All Types Of Scrap Gold
'Scrap gold' simply refers to any gold that is no longer wanted in its current form but still has value because of its metal content. Even damaged or heavily worn items can be worth a surprising amount, as it's the gold itself that counts, not the condition.
We buy all kinds of scrap gold, including:
- Broken or unwanted jewellery such as rings, chains, bracelets, and brooches
- Gold cigarette cases and lighters - working or unworking
- Gold watches and pocket watches
- Dental gold, such as crowns, bridges, and fillings
- Coins, including Sovereigns and other gold currency
- Industrial scrap and gold components
We're happy to purchase gold of any purity: 9-carat, 14-carat, 18-carat, 22-carat or 24-carat, in yellow, white, or rose gold, including both hallmarked and unhallmarked pieces.
At MJ Hughes Coins we buy all scrap gold items, including broken jewellery, industrial metal and dental gold.
How We Value Your Unwanted Gold
The value of your scrap gold depends on three main factors: purity, weight, and the current gold price. Higher-carat gold contains more pure metal and is therefore worth more per gram, while the total weight determines the payout. Our valuations are always based on the latest market rate, and our precision equipment ensures every test is accurate.
If you'd like to get an idea of what your items might be worth before visiting, you can use our online scrap gold calculator for a quick estimate.
Now Is The Best Time To Sell Your Gold
The price of gold has risen dramatically over the past two decades, reaching record highs in recent years. That means old, broken, or forgotten pieces of jewellery are often worth far more than people expect. Even an unfashionable 9ct bracelet, an old gold dental filling, or a damaged chain could now be worth hundreds of pounds simply for its gold content.
At MJ Hughes Coins, we test every item carefully and pay you for its true metal value, not an arbitrary 'per-item' rate. You'll always receive a custom valuation, and we're happy to offer a straightforward explanation of how your payment is calculated.
