Precious Metals Buying Guide
We purchase a wide variety of precious metals in numerous forms, including:
Gold
As the most popular and high-profile precious metal, gold has long been a symbol of wealth and a reliable store of value. We buy all forms of gold, including:
- Gold Bullion: This includes investment-grade gold bars and coins from sovereign and private mints worldwide. We are always interested in popular bullion coins like the American Gold Eagle, Canadian Gold Maple Leaf, and South African Krugerrand, as well as gold bars and coins of all sizes from the Perth Mint and other reputable refiners.
- Gold Jewellery: We buy all types of gold jewellery, whether new, old, or broken. This includes rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and more, in various karats (10K, 14K, 18K, 22K, 24K, etc.).
- Gold nuggets and alluvial: We buy most natural gold nuggets, alluvial and specimens, as well as homemade poured ingots.
- Gold Rounds and Other Items: We also buy privately minted gold rounds and other high-purity gold items.
Silver
Is a highly valuable and versatile metal, known for its use in investment and industrial applications. We buy silver in the following forms:
- Silver Bullion: This includes silver bars and coins from well-known mints, such as the American Silver Eagle, Canadian Silver Maple Leaf, and Austrian Silver Philharmonic. We also purchase silver rounds and bars of varying sizes from various refiners.
- Silver Jewellery and Flatware: We buy sterling silver jewellery, flatware, and serving sets.
Platinum & Palladium
Platinum and palladium are rarer than gold and silver and are highly sought after for their investment potential and significant industrial uses, particularly in the automotive and jewellery sectors.

Important Considerations for Sellers
When selling your precious metals, you must take note of the following to ensure a smooth process flow:
- Bring your I.D. As a licensed pawnbroker and secondhand dealer in QLD, we are required to sight 100 points of I.D. from all customers obtaining a loan or selling items. Any customers purchasing precious metals of $5,000 or more in value are also required to provide I.D. All cash transactions of $10,000 or more must be reported to AUSTRAC. We have a Anti-Money Laundering/Counter terrorism financing (AML/CTF) program in place, which can be sighted at any time on request.
- Be aware of potential Capital Gains Tax (CGT) when selling gold, as profit from the sale is subject to tax in Australia.
- Gold buyers operate in a market influenced by supply and demand, which impacts the price of gold.
