You are financially down during recessions or emergency situation. The pieces of jewelry will greatly aid your needs. The pawn shop is the best place to trust your valuables in exchange for cash. Usually, we think that it’s that simple. Valuable pieces are worth dollars while other gems are worth thousands. It depends on jewelry physical appearance. It must be polished or clean and in good shape, in order to get a ballpark rate.

Vintage jewelry you inherited from your families will possibly have a great appraisal. Lucky are those who experienced to pick up jewelry along the road or got it from a garage sale. Are you curious if the item has a value and how much would it be? Some may just look sparkly but found out only fashion jewelry. There are ways on how to identify if the item you have been keeping are assets or not. You may check it yourself before bringing it to a jewelry appraiser. An appraiser will genuinely confirm your curiosity if the item is fake or real. One way to identify if with value is the hallmarks. There are numerous hallmarks, such as for gold are 18K, 14K and 10K, while for silver items are 925, Sterling and Silver. Are your earrings, necklace, bracelet or rings having hallmarks? If yes, it is a good sign. Samples of high value jewelry hallmarks are Cartier and Tiffany & Co. Also, for fashion jewelry hallmarks may include AVON and Sarah Coventry. Costume or fashion jewelry is not very valuable. Another thing is to check the weight of your gold and silver item. If you have a gold necklace with thick chain, but the weight is lighter, possibly it has a hollow gold or fake. Remember that a genuine gold item is heavy and the surface is smooth.
