Estate & Inherited Collections
Inherited jewelry, watches, coins, and family collections can be difficult to understand without experienced guidance. David’s Jewelry & Coin Exchange helps families and executors identify, organize, appraise, divide, and sell estate jewelry and coins in College Station.
You do not need to clean, sort, organize, untangle, or separate everything before your visit. Bring the collection as you found it, along with any records you have.
Start with the Right Type of Help
Start with the help your family needs: written appraisal documentation, collection organization, groups of similar estimated value for multiple heirs, or an offer to purchase.
Our appraisal services cover jewelry, watches, coins, and mixed inherited collections. Written appraisals and collection division have fees based on the work involved. Verbal evaluations and cash offers when considering a sale are free. We explain the scope and pricing before proceeding.
Appraising Inherited Collections
Appraising Inherited Collections
Mixed collections may include gold jewelry, sterling silver, diamonds, watches, bullion and collectible coins. Our team can identify important details, review any records that came with the items and help determine whether you need a free verbal evaluation, a formal written appraisal or additional research.
Larger collections may need to be left with us for examination. We explain timing and fees before you decide how to proceed.
Dividing a Collection
When several heirs want to keep items, we can help organize jewelry or coins into groups of similar value. Pricing depends on the collection and the work involved, and we discuss the scope and fees before proceeding.
Family members and their advisors decide how the items will be distributed. If the heirs prefer to sell, we can also evaluate the collection and discuss a cash offer.
Selling an Estate Collection
If the family prefers to sell, we can review jewelry, luxury watches, gold and silver bullion, collectible coins, paper currency and sterling silver. We consider metal content as well as designer, antique or collectible value where it applies.
Verbal evaluations and cash offers are free. We explain the offer, and the family decides whether to accept. See what we buy and what to bring.
