    Nearest counter: Livingston, about 13 minutes

    About three in five of the homes in West Orange went up before 1960, when a sterling service was a standard wedding present; the median home here dates from 1956.

  • Coin buying & numismatic appraisal

    U.S. and world coins with collector or precious metal value, from common dates bought on metal content to key-date rarities, each one appraised for its numismatic worth rather than just melt.

    Nearest counter: Livingston, about 13 minutes

    About one in four of West Orange's houses predate 1940 — old enough that coins put away two or three generations back can still be sitting in one of them.

  • Buy gold & silver bullion

    Nearest counter: Livingston, about 13 minutes

Directions start from the center of West Orange Township. Directions from your address →

Routes from OpenStreetMap data, without traffic. Road work and closures are not reflected.

West Orange is our closest neighbouring township — around ten minutes from the Livingston counter along Northfield Avenue — so most people from here simply walk in. For a larger estate, call ahead and we will set aside a private appointment.

The township covers a lot of ground, and what arrives from it varies more than from anywhere else we serve. From the Llewellyn Park end we tend to see estate jewelry, sterling services and the occasional genuinely interesting numismatic piece. From the eastern side of the township, closer to Orange, it is far more often circulated 90% silver coinage and scrap gold.

What is worth the trip

Neither of those categories is more welcome than the other. Scrap is straightforward, quick to appraise, and we buy it every day. But it is worth knowing what you have before you arrive, because the two are handled differently on the counter.

If you are bringing scrap, you do not need to sort it — but plated costume pieces, stainless and anything magnetic will not count toward the offer, and we do not buy gold-plated or gold-filled jewelry. If you think you may have collectable coins, do not clean them under any circumstances. Cleaning a coin can remove a substantial portion of its value to a collector, and it is not reversible.

Testing while you watch

Everything is tested on the counter in front of you. We use an XRF analyser for purity, specific gravity where a piece warrants it, and a loupe for hallmarks and mint marks. You will see the readings as we take them, and we will explain what each one means for the piece in your hand. The offer is written and itemized, and if you accept you are paid on the spot, in cash or by check.

Bring photo ID. New Jersey requires it for precious metals transactions and we cannot complete a purchase without it.

What we see from West Orange

  • Turn-of-the-century estate jewelry and sterling from the Llewellyn Park side
  • Circulated 90% silver coinage and scrap gold from the eastern end
  • The occasional genuinely interesting numismatic piece

West Orange runs from the Llewellyn Park side down toward Orange, and the material we see reflects that spread — turn-of-the-century estate jewelry and sterling from the hill, and a great deal more circulated silver coinage and scrap gold from the eastern end of the township.
