Muzeum Will Buy Your Unwanted Gold and Silver

Are you looking to make a bit of extra money by selling gold and silver? Maybe you’ve invested in some bullion and want to trade it in, or you have gold and silver lying around the house and you want to declutter and make some money.

Gold and silver can come in all sorts of forms, whether bullion, coins, jewellery, or in scraps. Precious metals are always valuable, especially when the purity level is higher. So if you have any of these items and are willing to part with them, you can make a decent amount of money as long as you bring them to the right buyer.

Bring Your Precious Metals to Muzeum

Our name might as well be “Muzeum Gold & Silver” because we are the best place to sell gold in Toronto, hands down (as well as silver!). The evaluations we do are based off current market values which you can easily view from our website. We’re all about transparency and unlike the other guys we don’t value your pieces based off of the insurable price (which is lower than the market value).

If you’re wondering how much can you get for your gold and silver items then it’s best to take them to our store where they can get properly evaluated. We have a staff of experts who will be able to walk you through the process and explain in detail the worth of your items – for free!

How We Determine Your Item’s Value

There are a number of factors that go into an item’s value. As already discussed, precious metal content is one of them. But how do we know when an item is truly made of gold and silver? There are a few ways to tell:

• Precious metals are heavy; experts can often tell if an item is made of real gold or silver just by holding it in their hand
• Silver and gold aren’t magnetic; you can use a strong magnet against your item to see if it produces a reaction (if it does, then your item doesn’t have any precious metals)
• Sterling silver tarnishes when exposed to air, so if you rub a cloth on an item you think is silver, there should be black residue
• Items with true precious metal content often have hallmarks or stamps to indicate their purity
• We have an on-site XRF machine that will tell us exactly what material your items are made of

Let’s take a closer look what kind of hallmarks and stamps (markings) you should be checking for:

By looking at these marks, you can tell right away what the purity level of your item is. In regards to maker’s marks, you can try looking it up using this website, but usually it’s best to have a professional take a look at it for you. The experts we have at our store have years of experience with this sort of thing and will usually be able to tell right away what kind of mark it is.
