We buy gold, diamonds, silver, coins, antiques & watches — and we sell watches too
Six categories, one counter, and a straight answer every time. Everything is tested, weighed and graded in front of you at our Massapequa shop — free of charge, whether you sell or not. Everyone welcome.
We buy gold — any karat, any condition
Gold is what we are known for. Sellers across Long Island bring us chains, rings, bracelets, earrings, charms, class rings, dental gold, bent clasps and single earrings with no match — and all of it has real value, because gold is priced by weight and purity, not by how pretty it still looks.
We test every piece for karat with both acid and electronic testing, weigh it on a legal-for-trade scale in front of you, and quote against that morning’s gold spot price. You see the same numbers we do.
- Gold chains and necklaces — Cuban, rope, figaro, herringbone
- Gold rings, wedding bands and class rings
- Broken, tangled and single-earring scrap gold
- Dental gold, crowns and bridges
- Gold coins, Krugerrands, Eagles and foreign gold
- Unmarked gold we test for you at no charge
Sell diamonds on Long Island without guessing at the value
We buy loose diamonds, engagement rings, tennis bracelets, stud earrings and diamond estate jewelry. Certified stones with a GIA or AGS report are straightforward; uncertified stones we grade at the counter for cut, color, clarity and carat weight — and you are welcome to look through the loupe with us.
A diamond’s resale value depends heavily on those four factors plus the shape and the market for that size. We explain exactly where your stone lands and why, so the number is never a mystery.
- Round brilliant, princess, oval, emerald and cushion cuts
- GIA / AGS certified and uncertified stones
- Engagement and anniversary rings
- Diamond tennis bracelets and riviera necklaces
- Estate and antique diamond jewelry
- Chipped or damaged stones — still worth bringing in
Sterling silver and silver flatware buyers on Long Island
Inherited a chest of sterling flatware nobody polishes anymore? That set is worth real money. We buy sterling silver flatware, tea and coffee services, trays, holloware, candlesticks, picture frames, silver jewelry, and .999 fine silver bars and rounds.
Watch for the marks: sterling, 925, or a lion passant means solid silver. Silver-plate and EPNS are not, and we will tell you honestly which is which rather than let you find out somewhere else.
- Sterling flatware sets, partial sets and odd pieces
- Tea sets, trays, bowls and holloware
- Sterling jewelry, chains and bangles
- .999 silver bars, rounds and bullion
- Pre-1965 US silver coinage
- Weighted sterling — we buy the silver content
Coin buyers for collectors and casual sellers alike
We buy US and world coins, from a single inherited silver dollar to a full collection built over decades. Some coins are worth their metal; others are worth many times that because of date, mint mark and condition. The difference matters, and it is the reason to have coins looked at by someone who buys them every week.
Do not clean your coins before bringing them in — cleaning almost always lowers the value. Leave them exactly as you found them, album and all.
- Morgan and Peace silver dollars
- Pre-1965 dimes, quarters, halves and war nickels
- Wheat pennies, Indian Head cents and buffalo nickels
- Gold Eagles, Krugerrands, Maple Leafs and sovereigns
- Graded coins in PCGS and NGC holders
- Old US paper currency, silver certificates and notes
Antique and estate jewelry buyers on Long Island
Estate jewelry is where the surprises live. Victorian mourning pieces, Art Deco filigree, mid-century cocktail rings, cameos, mourning lockets, signed designer work — these are often worth far more than their gold weight, and a buyer who only weighs metal will miss it entirely.
If you are settling an estate, come in with the whole box. We sort it with you, piece by piece, and explain what is collectible, what is scrap, and what you may want to keep in the family.
- Antique and Art Deco jewelry
- Cameos, lockets, brooches and mourning pieces
- Signed and designer estate pieces
- Pocket watches and watch chains
- Gold pens, cufflinks, cigarette cases and compacts
- Full estate lots — we look at everything
We buy and sell Rolex and other luxury watches — running or not
Looking to sell a Rolex, Omega, Cartier, Patek Philippe or another luxury watch — or find one to buy? We buy and sell modern and vintage pieces. Model, condition, originality and papers all matter — and we walk through each of those with you at the counter.
Box and papers help the value, but plenty of watches are worth strong money without them. A watch that stopped running years ago is still worth bringing in. Gold cases, bracelets and links are valued for the metal as well as the brand.
- Rolex — Submariner, Datejust, Daytona, Explorer, GMT and more
- Omega, Cartier, Patek Philippe, Tag Heuer, Breitling
- Other Swiss and luxury mechanical watches
- Solid gold cases, bracelets, buckles and links
- Vintage and dress watches
- Pocket watches, railroad grades included
- Watches that no longer run
What to bring when you sell
A signed ID
The Town of Oyster Bay Code requires licensed secondhand dealers to verify your identity and record it. A driver license or passport is all you need — it works because it is signed.
Everything, not just the good stuff
Bring the whole jewelry box. Broken chains and mismatched earrings add weight, and weight is money.
Any paperwork you have
Diamond certificates, appraisals, watch boxes and papers, coin holders — all of it can raise the number.
