CLEVELAND GOLD EXCHANGE
Sorting loose silver-colored coins
Lay out coins by denomination and date, then photograph both faces of representative pieces. Do not assume all coins of a similar size or color have the same composition.
Record the number of coins in each group separately from their combined weight. Set aside unusual dates, damaged pieces and coins already in certification holders for individual discussion.
Ask whether an estimate is for metal content or collector resale. Your Cleveland photo inquiry can help the Idaho team identify which information is missing before further evaluation.

Compare before you decide.
The reviewed counter is in Middleburg Heights, outside Cleveland proper. Compare like-for-like item categories rather than applying one posted percentage to every coin or piece of jewelry.

Before you go
- Is my item being quoted as scrap, bullion or a collectible coin?
- What net weight and metal-price timestamp will appear on the offer?
A starting point for comparison, not an exhaustive list or a ranking. Independent businesses are not partners of this site. Their buying terms are separate from Idaho Pawn’s mail-in estimate.

CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT TO KEEP
Sell it, or keep a path to getting it back?
Sell to a buyer
You exchange the item for an agreed payment. Compare the final amount after testing and any fees. Ask a pawn shop about an outright purchase too; selling does not require taking a loan.
Estimate a mail-in sale →Ask about a local pawn loan
If you want the item back, ask a local pawnbroker whether it accepts your item as collateral. Before signing, compare the cash advanced, APR, total repayment and redemption deadline. You can lose the item if you do not redeem it under the agreement.
A buyer listed in this guide may not offer loans. Confirm services directly. Our 80% melt calculator estimates a purchase payout, not a loan advance. CFPB: pawn transaction disclosures.
Questions to take to a pawn shop
- What will I receive today, and what is the total to get my item back?
- What are the due date, any grace period, and the cost of a renewal?
- How will my item be described, stored and returned? What happens if I miss the deadline?
- What would you pay to buy it outright instead? Can I take a copy of both offers?
Before you accept an offer
Confirm the specific item, weight, purity assumptions, total payable amount, any costs, and the handling plan. Do not rely on a catalog figure as a locked offer.
Local visit or an Idaho review?
A local buyer may let you discuss testing and payment in person. Our online photo review goes to Idaho Pawn & Gold in Idaho. Compare both paths on the amount payable, testing, timing and the cost of getting your item back if you decline.
For ordinary gold or silver, our starting mail-in estimate is 80% of verified melt value. Designer jewelry, diamonds, collectible coins, Rolex watches and luxury goods such as Louis Vuitton need separate evaluation for value beyond metal content.
