How to make a gift of precious metals
If you have a significant precious metal collection you wish to donate please contact our office to see if a planned giving specialist will be in your area. If you are planning to mail in larger amounts of precious metals please make sure you insure and track the package.
Most common precious metals include:
- - Gold
- - Silver
- - Platinum
Donated as:
- - Bars
- - Coins
- - Jewerly
*We do accept jewelry donations when it is genuine gold, silver, platinum or diamonds. While we attempt to get the highest revenue for your donation, due to time and resources, gold, silver and diamond jewelry are often sold for their weight or liquid melt value which could result in a significantly lower value than the perceived value of a particular design that may no longer be in demand in the current market.
