Selling Gold and Silver Coins – Popular Types and Valuation

Paul is such an expert! Kind, knowledgeable. The experience was so easy. Felt cared for. Great place!

So lovely to work with! Paul was incredibly kind and helpful in explaining each of my pieces to me. He was also very responsive and from what I could tell from gathering other opinions, offered me very fair prices. Highly recommend!

Oct. 16th, 2025: My first time ever going to such an establishment, and Paul was AMAZING. He was open, patient, and didn't try to deter me in any direction: Which attributed to me feeling his sincerity and honesty. He simply answered my questions and told me what material was legit or not + everything was out in the open, the machines, calculator, and etc.. Normally I'd shop around, but his energy was enough that I didn't feel I was being cheated and should visit others. Will definitely recommend to others!

Paul of Pacific Jewelry & Watches is a consummate professional and highly recommended. I visited his office for a ring appraisal-- Paul was super helpful and patient in walking me through the appraisal process, what factors establish the value of a ring, and took time to answer all of my questions along the way. I will be using Pacific Jewelry & Watches for future appraisal needs, and have no problem recommending him to family and friends. Thank you Paul!

Quick and easy experience! He got me in so fast and trust his expertise. Will definitely be using for more appraisals!

A big thank you to Paul. Just had my gold pieces appraised and sold same day. Very professional and knowledgeable as well as fast and easy. Thanks again.

I just sold a decent amount of silverware and gold with Paul at pacific jewelry. Not only did he give me a great price but he was an even better person. 10/10 would recommend anyone to come see Paul if they are looking to sell some jewelry or anything of value.

Paul was super helpful and informative in describing the cost of my pieces and why their values were what they were. I had two very different pieces of jewelry that he was able to give me the values of. He told me what the gem was on a necklace, the necklace’s money worth in gold, and on another piece he was able to run it through a machine to tell me the gold percentage (since it wasn’t stamped on the piece like it usually is.) He appraised both pieces that I brought and I only sold him one. He did not charge me for his time. I am not familiar with jewelry appraising. As my first experience, Paul was fantastic and super helpful in a realm where surely you could be scammed by someone else. Based on our conversation and his in-depth explanations - I feel very satisfied with his appraisals on my pieces and it matches up with what I expected going in. He was also sure to answer any questions I had. One tip for people new to this: I believe he, and other Jewelry appraisers, will give you the material value. I don’t believe it accounts for things like “designers” or brands - but that was not a problem in my case nor is it a thing that most appraisers do to my understanding. It’s something to consider though if you believe you have a rare/designer piece that may be worth more than its materials. (I could also be wrong, so it’s extremely worth asking!)

I had to sell some coins from my grandfather‘s collection that I inherited and coming here was the best decision! It was an honest and fair process and grateful I found it after so many places!

Had a great experience the gentleman was Highly knowledgeable and polite. I would highly recommended

I sold some of my grandmas jewelry to Paul and it was a super smooth process and I felt very well consulted. Will sell more to him.

Paul, the owner of Pacific Jewelry & Watches, is a wonderful appraiser. He is knowledgeable, professional, and customer-oriented. His fee is very reasonable, especially compared with other appraisers on the Westside. I have used Paul to appraise jewelry and sterling flatware, and will continue to use his services in the future. I highly recommend Paul.

Paul is courteous, kind and very good at his job. He will tell you how much your jewelry is worth with the highest accuracy, and a bonus - he's a super nice person!

Had a great experience at Pacific Jewelry selling several items. Paul is a friendly, easy going guy who is patient and very knowledgeable. Total satisfaction with the prices he gave, in fact, he gave me more than I expected. Thank you Paul!

I saw Paul for my engagement ring appraisal. I really appreciated him waiting for me since I got a flat tire right before my appointment. He took his time explaining the cost of the ring and what it takes to make a ring like mine and he seemed genuinely excited about explaining the process. He was fairly quick in his responses to me when I scheduled the appointment and was quick to send me the documents for my insurance. I really appreciate this experience because most professionals in jewelry talk down to people that don’t know anything about jewelry. Will definitely recommend him to my friends and will come back when I acquire more jewelry.
