Gold

Hearing the word Gold can conjure up images of wealth, Gold jewelry, and Gold bullion. Gold is listed as AU on the periodic table of elements. The atomic number for Gold is 79. Gold is very dense, meaning Gold is very heavy for its size. Gold is also the most malleable metal, with a single gram of Gold being able to be beaten into a 1 square meter sheet. Because of the inherent softness of Gold, most Gold jewelry is typically alloyed.

This process creates karat Gold. Most Gold jewelry in America is 10 karat (41.7% pure) Gold or 14 karat (58.5% pure) Gold. Also available is 8 karat (33.3% pure) Gold, 9 karat (37.5% pure) Gold, 18 karat(75% pure) Gold, 21 karat(87.5% pure) Gold, 22 karat (91.6% pure) Gold, and rarely 24 karat(99.99% pure) Gold. Alloying Gold also allows you to create different color Gold jewelry, including white Gold, green Gold, and rose Gold.

Gold has been used as money and jewelry since ancient times. Gold was popular in Ancient Egypt and Rome. Gold was used to make large Gold funeral mask’s for Egyptian Pharaohs. Gold was so important to the Romans that they developed new hydraulic mining methods for finding Gold. They were able to extract large Gold deposits with the new Gold mining methods. Many people like to use Gold as an investment in addition to Gold jewelry.

Gold is typically in the form of Gold bullion. Gold bullion can be made and sold by private mints, such as Credit Suisse. Gold bullion is also minted by various countries. Popular Gold bullion coins include the American Gold Eagle, the Chinese Gold Panda, the South African Gold Krugerrand and the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf. These Gold bullion coins minted by various countries often have a monetary value, but that value is less than the intrinsic value of the Gold in these Gold bullion coins.

Most Gold bullion coins are issued in 22 karat Gold, like the Gold Krugerrand or 24 karat Gold like the Gold Panda and Gold Buffalo, and come in one ounce Gold bullion sizes, along with various fractions of an ounce. The reason people like Gold as an investment is that Gold can be a hedge against inflation. Gold can also be used to keep wealth in the face of a collapsing economy, as the Gold will still have value in the currency of other countries.

Always a good experience here! Definitely the place in town I enjoy buying coins from, and I’d recommend them to anybody. Helpful staff, reasonable prices, and wide selection.

I recently got divorced so I wanted to get rid of some of the jewelry my ex-husband got me. I found Nevada Coin and jewelry searching the web. When I called the guy that answered the phone was friendly and willing to quote me a price per gram. I went to their store on Flamingo, Avery whom I spoke to on the phone tested my items using some kind of x-ray machine. I could see that some of my jewelry was not the karat I thought (some lower some higher). He paid what he quoted on the phone no bait and switch. It took less than 15 minutes got my cash and got rid of some bad memories. I would recommend this company if you are looking to sell jewelry.

What friendly staff. They help you sell your items even if they don’t have a use for it by calling other shops around the area to see if they could use it… They want you to have the best out come from selling your items. I was so happy I decided to go to them!

Wonderful experience, Nick and Laura made it seamless and stress free. Thank you! They also sell super cool items!!

My friend and I came here to sell some coins and jewelry. We first saw Scott about some coins. He was very friendly and knew his stuff. Afterwards, he brought us over to Sheila who looked at our jewelry. She was also very nice and professional. We will definitely come back here again. GREAT PLACE!!!!

After visiting a couple of the “traveling gold & silver merchants” who came to Mesquite, I made a call to Nevada Coin & Jewelry in Las Vegas… David was very helpful and professional. Their prices were the best I had seen… I left very satisfied with my trip and the deals we made. I will definitely go there again.

What inspired me to go to NV Coin and Jewelry was I was an ad on the TV for the shop. I was not too sure about going to NV Coin and Jewelry to sell my jewelry because I have been to many other pawn shops but haven’t found a good deal for my jewelry. After I went to Nevada Coin and Jewelry it was a big relief for me selling my jewelry for a good price.

Staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive. Building had great security to helped me feel safe in handling my items.

Great family run store. I’m well taken care of every time I show up at this location. Thank you Nick.

Really cool cats over at Nevada Coin and Jewelry. You would’ve thought that I was “Madonna” the way those guys treated me. I was so mesmerized by all of the antiques, they have in there, I believe I was there for two hours, just looking, unbelieveable! When I went in I was so hot, they offered me a cold bottle of water, how cool is that? It felt like home to me. I wanted to get a price for some old jewelry that was passed down by grandma, I was well satisfied. When I left the shop, I was singing “Money, Money, Money.

This past Saturday I had the opportunity to meet the owner and team at Nevada Coin and Jewelry. I didn’t know what to expect but they made me feel both comfortable and safe. I went through my collection of jewelry, both broken pieces and things I thought were of no value at all. They took the time to explain what each carat weight was worth and they helped me sort through my items. I was amazed at what they gave me for things I would never wear or use. I would recommend you stop in and speak to them, you might be as pleasantly surprised as I was.

I brought them some gold pendants, rings and a few other pieces. I knew they weren’t worth that much but I needed the cash. The guys (and there are a lot of them) were really nice and not the least bit condescending. They know when you come in to sell there is a reason but they don’t make you feel bad or inadequate. The store is filled with interesting objects for sale and for show. A very nice and very fair place to buy and sell. I highly recommend them.
