Silver Items We Buy And Sell
Silver Scrap
“Scrap silver ” is an expression that refers to any silver that is no longer of value in its original marketed form—for example, broken jewelry or industrial by-products. Scrap silver is often sent to a refinery, in order to be melted down.
Sterling Silver Jewelry
We buy sterling jewelry in any condition including vintage, antique, damaged, broken or silver jewelry you just don’t wear anymore. Bring in your sterling silver earrings, necklaces, pendants, bracelets, rings, etc. Most silver jewelry is Sterling silver and should be stamped with a hallmark of either “.925” or “sterling.” We do not buy German Silver, Alpaca or Nickle Silver (because it is actually not silver, it’s nickel or copper.)

We at California Gold and Silver Exchange buy all silver bullion from any manufacturer or country. Silver bullion is also sought out by collectors of rare gold coins, vintage currencies, and other bullion with numismatic value.

These topical collector medals are made of 92.5% sterling silver and come in the round or bar form. They range in size from 1 gram to 25 troy ounces or more.

Maria and Amira are the best so nice and very polite my wife brought a ton of jewelry she didn’t want anymore and Amira and Maria took very good care of us and paid us the max that they could which wasn’t bad at all. My wife was pleased with the sale. I would definitely recommend this family-owned place to anyone looking to sell any gold or silver to them.
Honest, fair and helpful. Maria, Amira and Michael, inform and educate their customers. They have the equipment to give you a straight-up breakdown of what your ring or necklace or coin is composed of. They will show you the up-to-date value of any metal. Everything is above board with these folks. I’ve never seen them on the wrong side of an argument. Buying or selling, they do honest and fair business.
These people will never do you wrong. They are so honest and helpful and really attentive. They also have fair prices and honestly what they provide in service in terms of trust and accountability is why I still choose them even when other places might have a better price at times. There is no price on trust and I’m so glad I found them.
