How Bullion Is Priced
+
Gold and silver bullion is usually priced using the current metal value plus a premium. Explore what goes into the price:
What is the spot price?
The spot price is the current market value of the metal. Because precious metals are actively traded around the world, spot prices can fluctuate throughout the day as market conditions change.
What affects a product’s premium?
Premiums vary with the product type, mint or manufacturer, availability and demand, dealer acquisition costs, condition, and collectibility.
Why can the same weight have different prices?
Two one ounce silver products may contain the same amount of silver but sell at different prices depending on whether the item is a government minted coin, a private mint round, or a silver bar.
Our team is happy to answer questions about bullion pricing and explain the differences between specific products in our showroom.
Precious Metal Testing
Authenticity matters when buying, selling, or evaluating coins, bullion, gold, silver, and other precious metals.
At David’s Jewelry and Coin Exchange, our team can verify many gold and silver coins and bullion products using professional testing equipment, including XRF X-ray analysis and Sigma Metalytics verification technology.
These tools allow us to analyze many precious metal items without damaging them and help provide confidence in the authenticity and composition of the coins and bullion being considered.
Whether you are buying, selling, or reviewing inherited coins and bullion, professional verification can help you better understand what you have.
PCGS Coin Grading
David’s Jewelry and Coin Exchange is proud to be a PCGS Authorized Dealer. As a PCGS Authorized Dealer, we can assist customers with submitting eligible coins to PCGS for professional authentication and grading.
PCGS, or Professional Coin Grading Service, is one of the most recognized names in third-party coin grading and authentication. Having a coin professionally graded can help confirm authenticity, document its condition, and provide a clearer understanding of how collectors may view it.
Not every coin needs to be graded. Our team can help you review your coins, explain what may make a coin worth submitting, and discuss whether PCGS grading makes sense based on the coin’s condition, rarity, potential value, and your goals.

Collectors visit our showroom for a wide variety of rare and collectible coins. Much of our inventory comes from local collections and estate purchases, giving you the chance to discover pieces with history, character, and local connection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you always have gold and silver bullion in stock?
We maintain a strong inventory of gold and silver bullion products, although specific products and quantities change regularly.
What is junk silver?
Junk silver commonly refers to U.S. dimes, quarters and half dollars dated before 1965 that contain 90% silver. Many trade primarily for their silver content, although particular dates and conditions can also interest collectors.
What is the difference between a coin, a round, and a bar?
Government mints produce coins, while private mints produce rounds and bars. All can contain precious metals, but pricing and collectibility may differ.
What is silver stacking?
Silver stacking is the practice of regularly purchasing physical silver, often in the form of silver rounds, silver bars, junk silver, or government minted bullion coins. Many collectors and precious metals buyers enjoy building a silver stack over time.
Should every coin be sent to PCGS for grading?
No. Weigh the submission cost against the coin’s rarity, condition, date, mint mark and potential value. We can review those details with you before you decide.
Do you give investment advice?
No. Our team can explain the differences among coins, rounds, bars, and bullion products; premiums; availability; PCGS grading considerations; and current showroom inventory, but we do not provide financial advice. Purchase decisions should be based on your own goals and circumstances.
