Do gold buyers in Rockford also buy silver, platinum and coins?
Yes. Sterling (.925) and coin silver are bought per gram off the silver spot price ($53.74/oz today), and most gold buyers also take platinum, dental gold, gold-filled pieces at a lower rate, and bullion coins and bars at close to spot. Plated items have no melt value.
Should I sell gold to a pawn shop or a jeweler in Rockford?
Jewelers and dedicated gold buyers usually pay closer to melt value than pawn shops, which price for loans and resale. The Rockford list above includes both; any of them should weigh and test your pieces in front of you and quote per gram, and a second quote across town is the easiest way to add 10–20%.
