How We Buy Your Gold, Silver & Coins and Why Now Is a Great Time to Sell
If you have ever wondered what your gold is worth or whether you should sell old coins, you are in the right place. At Perry’s Diamonds & Estate Jewelry in Charlotte, NC, we make selling your gold, silver, coins, jewelry, timepieces, and handbags easy, transparent, and profitable. While we do encourage appointments, they are not required and walk-ins always welcome, you can stop by anytime to receive a same-day check for your valuables.
Record High Precious Metal Prices as of January 2026
Gold and silver prices have seen massive increases in recent months, and those higher values continue into January 2026. Strong global demand, inflation concerns, and economic uncertainty have pushed precious metal prices to elevated levels, making this an excellent time to consider selling.
Because gold and silver prices fluctuate daily based on market conditions, items you may have stored away for years could be worth significantly more today than you expect. Many of our customers are surprised to learn that broken jewelry, outdated pieces, silver flatware, or old coins can bring in hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
What You Can Sell at Perry’s
Customers regularly bring in:
- Gold jewelry, including broken or outdated pieces
- Silver jewelry and silverware
- Gold and silver coins
- Estate and antique jewelry
- Luxury watches and timepieces
- Designer handbags in very good condition
Every day, customers are pleasantly surprised by how much their items are worth in today’s market.
Our Simple and Transparent Buying Process
At Perry’s Diamonds & Estate Jewelry, we believe selling your valuables should be straightforward and comfortable. Here is how our gold, silver, and coin buying process works.
1. Walk In Anytime
Walk-ins are always welcome, but please keep in mind that appointments are highly encouraged if you have coins and/or bullion, timepieces or a large collection to be evaluated to ensure we have the proper staff available to assist you. Appointments can be made here. Bring your items to our location at 6525 Carnegie Boulevard in Charlotte, the blue office building across from the mall.
2. Private, Professional Evaluation
One of our qualified buyers or GIA Graduate Gemologists will evaluate your items in a private office while you watch. We clearly explain:
- Gold and silver purity and weight
- Coin or collectible value when applicable
- How current market prices affect your offer
- The consignment process if your item qualifies for consignment
There is no pressure and no obligation to sell.
3. Same-Day Payment
If you decide to sell, we will write you a check on the spot. There are no delays, shipping requirements, or hidden fees.
4. Free Verbal Appraisals
All verbal evaluations are completely free, whether you choose to sell or not. Please note: we offer free verbal appraisals only on any items you are considering selling to us. Should you need written appraisals for estate distribution, divorce proceedings, etc., we offer written appraisals for a fee. Schedule an appointment to meet with a jewelry appraiser for written appraisals here.
