Sell Gold

How we value your gold

At Cascade, every offer comes from three things: purity (karat), weight (on a certified scale), and the live spot price of pure gold. We test the metal in front of you, weigh only the gold (no stones or non-gold parts), and show the math so you can understand—and compare—any quote.

1. Test purity. We check karat stamps (10K/14K/18K/etc.) and confirm with non-destructive electronic/XRF testing (touchstone/acid only if needed).

2. Weigh accurately. We weigh gold alone—without stones, springs, or non-gold components—in grams (the industry standard).

3. Use live spot. We price against the current market (spot) for pure gold and apply our posted payout %. That’s your cash offer.

Sell Gold — Fast, Fair, and Transparent

Bring in your gold and we’ll help you identify what you have and how it’s valued. We check common markings like 10K, 14K, 18K, 22K, and 24K, weigh items, and explain your offer clearly. Coins and bullion may be evaluated beyond melt depending on demand and condition.

Tip: Mixed lots are welcome—broken jewelry, mismatched earrings, single links, and scrap gold can still have value. If you have packaging or certificates for coins/bars, bring those too.

Why gold is a good investment

When gold prices are high, selling allows you to maximize your returns on your investment. Recent years have seen gold prices reach record highs, driven by factors like inflation fears and geopolitical tension. Selling at this point can lead to a substantial profit, especially if you purchased your gold in earlier years.

Gold can be converted into cash relatively easily, providing you with immediate funds for various financial needs. This could include paying off debts, handling unexpected expenses, or funding major purchases like a down payment on a house.
