Sell Pre-1933 US Gold Coins in Woodhaven, MI — Top Cash Paid at Westland Exchange

Saint-Gaudens double eagles, Liberty Head $20s, $10 Indians, $5 half eagles and $2.50 quarter eagles are gold coins with genuine collector followings. Anything pre-1933 should be looked at as a coin before it's ever treated as metal — date, mint mark and grade routinely add serious value over gold content.

Woodhaven sits about 18 miles from our counter — roughly 26 minutes door to door. Take I-75 north to Southfield Fwy, north to Warren Ave, then west. If you are starting near Woodhaven Community Center and Civic Center Park, it is a straight, easy run with no downtown traffic to fight.

Woodhaven is a straight drive up I-75 and the Southfield Freeway. Bring gold, coins, electronics or tools and leave with cash.

Selling pre-1933 us gold coins here rather than shipping it away means you see the scale, you see the test, and you leave with cash in hand instead of waiting on a mailed check from an out-of-state refiner. Woodhaven customers do this every week, and most of them tell us the drive was shorter than they expected.

We are open monday – friday 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM and saturday 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM. Bring a valid photo ID — Michigan law requires it for any pawn or purchase — along with the pre-1933 us gold coins itself, and the whole visit usually takes a few minutes.
