In the US, gold is quoted in dollars per troy ounce. Jewelry is mostly 14K and 10K, while bullion coins such as the American Gold Eagle (22K) and Buffalo (24K) sell at a premium over spot. Sales tax on bullion depends on the state.
Before you sell, weigh your pieces on a jeweler’s scale, check the hallmark and compare at least two quotes. Read our guide to selling gold.
