ognjen Posted September 21, 2024 Share Posted September 21, 2024 So, do you keep all the gold you find or sell it? I don't have a large amount, but for now I'm keeping all the gold I've detected. It's kind of hard for me to sell when I assume that the price of gold will almost always rise, and it's not a huge amount of money that I can get if I sell all the gold I find. 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/26667-do-you-keep-all-the-gold-you-find-or-sell-it/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
stupot Posted September 21, 2024 Share Posted September 21, 2024 Personally, I tend to sell off gold after collecting it for a decent time, with a couple of exceptions. Any rings etc that my lady wants, she gets. Occasionally, I'll keep jewellery for myself if it's old and decent. However, I would never sell any of the gold coins I've found, thats completely different they're just too valued! 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/26667-do-you-keep-all-the-gold-you-find-or-sell-it/#findComment-281444 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ognjen Posted September 21, 2024 Author Share Posted September 21, 2024 Are there any better ways to sell gold besides selling it as scrap? I was thinking of placing ads on the most popular websites in my country, asking for a higher price than scrap gold, but still offering a lower price than jewelry stores. This way, it would be more appealing for buyers. What do you think of this idea? Has anyone tried this before? Do you get a better price if you sell more grams? The difference between the price of gold jewelry sold in a store and the price you get when selling it as scrap is significant, and I feel like it's pointless for me to sell it at that price. I also think gold could be a form of savings for me. 2 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/26667-do-you-keep-all-the-gold-you-find-or-sell-it/#findComment-281446 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skate Posted September 21, 2024 Share Posted September 21, 2024 Unless you need the money keep it. Most anything of gold value I find is usually claimed by my wife and daughter and my son likes silver rings. Allowing my wife first dibs of any nice rings keeps her happy and allows me to purchase any detecting equipment I "deem" necessary. 5 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/26667-do-you-keep-all-the-gold-you-find-or-sell-it/#findComment-281460 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TampaBayBrad Posted September 22, 2024 Share Posted September 22, 2024 So far I've been saving all I find. 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/26667-do-you-keep-all-the-gold-you-find-or-sell-it/#findComment-281495 Share on other sites More sharing options...
King-Of-Bling Posted September 22, 2024 Share Posted September 22, 2024 Sell it and enjoy it. You may not live long enough to cash out at a later date. Life is short. 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/26667-do-you-keep-all-the-gold-you-find-or-sell-it/#findComment-281529 Share on other sites More sharing options...
