What decides what we pay for gold pendants & charms

  1. 1Total gram weight of the lot
  2. 2Karat of each pendant (mixed lots are normal)
  3. 3Gold coins mounted in bezels, which carry numismatic value above melt
  4. 4Diamond or gemstone accents

When you bring gold pendants & charms to our counter at 27842 W. Warren Ave in Westland, the first thing we do is establish exactly what it is. Nothing is quoted from across the room and nothing is quoted from a photograph. We work at the counter with you standing there, and we explain each step as we go — what we are testing, what the test told us, and what it means for the number we are about to write down.

The single biggest factor on gold pendants & charms is total gram weight of the lot. After that comes karat of each pendant (mixed lots are normal), and at the far end of the list sits diamond or gemstone accents — the part most sellers never hear about anywhere else, because most buyers would rather pay a flat rate and move you along. We would rather show our work, because customers who understand the offer come back, and this shop has run on repeat customers since 1987.

What gold pendants & charms typically weighs

Typical weights and sizes

A typical 14K cross is 2–6 grams; a heavy nameplate or medallion can be 10–25 grams. Twenty assorted pendants often total 40+ grams.

A typical 14K cross is 2–6 grams; a heavy nameplate or medallion can be 10–25 grams. Twenty assorted pendants often total 40+ grams. That range is why we ask you to bring everything rather than picking out the pieces you assume are best. The item that looks least impressive in the drawer is frequently the one carrying the most value, and sorting it out costs you nothing.

How to spot it

Where to look for the marks

On the back or on the bail loop: 10K, 14K, 18K, 585, 750. Bezel-set coins are stamped on the bezel, not the coin.

What to bring

  • Valid state ID (required by Michigan law)
  • All the gold you have — broken, tangled, single earrings, dental gold all count
  • Any receipts, appraisals or original boxes if you have them (helpful, not required)

There is never any obligation. We will test gold pendants & charms, tell you the number, and hand it straight back if you would rather think about it, shop the offer around, or keep it. Plenty of people do exactly that and come back a week later — that is completely fine, and you will get the same welcome the second time.

Sell it outright

Sell outright for the highest cash amount today, or pawn it and get it back — pawn loans on gold are the easiest loans we write because the value is objective and the item stores in our vault.

We are open monday – friday 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM and saturday 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM, with free parking right at the door and no appointment needed. If you would like a sense of the number before you drive over, call (734) 425-0450 and describe what you have, or send photos through the quote form and we will come back to you the same day.

Or pawn it and keep it

If you would rather not part with it permanently, a pawn loan on gold pendants & charms gives you cash today while the item stays tagged and insured in our vault. No credit check, nothing reported to any bureau, and the item comes back the moment the loan is repaid. We will lay out both numbers — the outright offer and the loan amount — and let you choose.

FAQ

Gold Pendants & Charms questions, answered.

I have a gold coin mounted in a pendant. Should I remove it?+

No — bring it as-is. Many mounted coins are worth more than melt as coins, and we'll tell you whether removing the bezel makes sense before anything is done.

Do you buy religious medals and crosses?+

Yes, with no judgment and no pressure. We handle these pieces respectfully and pay on gold weight, or more if the piece is collectible.

Are nameplate pendants worth much?+

Often more than people think — script nameplates are wide and surprisingly heavy. We weigh them like any other gold.
