Getting cash for gold in Brick means walking into a licensed buyer on Cedar Bridge Avenue, getting your gold tested in front of you, and leaving with cash the same day. That is the actual process at Cash 4 Gold Trading Post, 921 Cedar Bridge Ave.
No shipping boxes. No waiting weeks for an offer.
No wondering if the gold you mailed actually arrived safely. You are there.
We test it. You get paid.
Gold Items We Buy in Brick
Gold jewelry in any condition. 10K, 14K, 18K, 22K, 24K.
Rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, pendants, chains, watch cases. Broken pieces, tangled chains, single earrings without their match.
Condition does not affect the melt value. A snapped 14K chain pays the same per gram as a perfect one.
Gold coins: American Gold Eagles, Buffalos, Krugerrands, Maple Leafs, Sovereigns, and pre-1933 US gold coins. Modern bullion coins are priced at spot plus a small premium. Numismatic pieces are assessed for collector value above their gold content.
Gold bars: any size, any refiner. We buy PAMP Suisse, Credit Suisse, Valcambi, Perth Mint, and others.
The assay card matters for smaller bars because it verifies the refiner's stated purity. Bring it if you have it.
Dental gold: crowns, bridges, dental scrap. Dental gold is typically high-purity solid gold alloy, not plated. Clean it up before you bring it in and it is straightforward to evaluate.
Estate gold: inherited collections, jewelry box cleanouts, items you are not sure about. Bring everything. We sort for free.
How the Cash-for-Gold Process Works
Walk in during business hours. No appointment needed.
Your gold goes on the counter. Our appraiser starts with visual sorting: identifying karat stamps, separating obvious gold from plated pieces, setting aside anything that might have collector value.
Then testing. The XRF analyzer reads the exact metal composition of each piece in about 15 seconds without damaging it.
We test everything, even pieces with clear karat stamps, because stamps can be wrong. The machine does not lie.
Then weighing on our NTEP-certified scale. Pieces are grouped by karat and weighed separately. The weight is right in front of you on the scale display.
Then the offer. We multiply the weight by the karat purity percentage by the current gold spot price to get melt value, then offer a competitive percentage of that number.
We show you the math. You decide.
If you accept, we count out cash right there. Not a check.
Not a Venmo. Cash.
If you do not accept, your gold goes back to you and you walk out. No cost, no obligation, no hard feelings.
Ocean County Gold Buyers
Our Brick location at 921 Cedar Bridge Ave serves Ocean County and the surrounding area. Toms River, Lakewood, Point Pleasant, Seaside Heights, Howell, and Jackson are all within reasonable distance. We see sellers from across the Jersey Shore who want same-day cash without the uncertainty of mailing gold to a stranger.
If you are in Brick or anywhere in Ocean County and want to sell gold, come in during business hours: Monday through Friday 10 AM to 6 PM, closed Saturday. Or call (732) 444-2094 with questions before you make the trip.
What We Pay
The offer is based on the current gold spot price, the karat of each piece, and the weight. We do not have a set percentage we advertise because gold spot changes constantly.
What we can tell you is that we pay competitively because we want repeat business and word-of-mouth. Lowballing sellers is not a strategy that works long-term.
We also do not charge appraisal fees. The evaluation is free whether you sell or not.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you buy silver as well as gold?
Yes. We buy sterling silver, silver flatware, silver coins, and silver bars at our Brick location.
Sterling silver items are marked.925 or "sterling."
Silver flatware sets, tea services, and candlesticks in sterling are bought by weight minus a handling percentage. Silver coins are bought based on silver content and numismatic value.
What should I bring with me?
Bring your gold and a valid ID. New Jersey requires licensed precious metals dealers to collect ID for purchases over a certain threshold.
Bring any paperwork you have on gold bars or high-value coins, especially assay cards for bars and certificates for graded coins. Everything else we handle on our end.
How long does the evaluation take?
For a handful of jewelry pieces, 10 to 15 minutes. For a larger collection with mixed items, coins, and bars, allow 30 to 45 minutes.
We move efficiently but we do not skip steps. Every piece gets tested.
Do you buy gold-plated items?
No. Gold-plated items have a thin layer of gold over a base metal.
The gold content is negligible and not worth buying as a precious metal. Our XRF analyzer identifies plated pieces immediately, so there is no ambiguity.
We will tell you upfront if a piece is plated rather than solid gold.
What about white gold or rose gold?
Yes, we buy both. White gold is gold alloyed with nickel or palladium to achieve the color.
Rose gold is alloyed with copper. Both are still gold-based alloys and are bought the same way as yellow gold: by weight and karat.
The color does not affect the price per gram.
What Makes a Cash 4 Gold Trading Post Quote Transparent?
Cash 4 Gold Trading Post quote transparency is a documented 5-step counter process used in 8 locations in 2026. First, our team shows live gold, silver, platinum, or coin market context. Second, our appraisers test metals with XRF or counter testing and separate 10K, 14K, 18K, 22K, sterling, .999 bullion, diamonds, watches, and costume pieces. Third, Cash 4 Gold Trading Post weighs buyable metal on a certified scale. Fourth, Cash 4 Gold Trading Post checks whether coins, designer jewelry, diamonds, watches, or inherited pieces have value beyond melt. Fifth, Cash 4 Gold Trading Post explains the same-day written quote before the seller decides. According to Cash 4 Gold Trading Post store analysis, sellers in Aberdeen, Brick, East Brunswick, Farmingdale, Manalapan, Middlesex, Millstone, and New Brunswick can bring 1 broken chain, 100 coins, or a full estate box with a $0 evaluation fee.
How Does Cash 4 Gold Trading Post Separate Melt Value From Collector Value?
Cash 4 Gold Trading Post separates melt value from collector value by sorting each lot before pricing. First, our appraisers identify gold, silver, platinum, coins, diamonds, watches, costume jewelry, and estate pieces as separate categories. Second, metal items are tested for purity, including 10K, 14K, 18K, 22K, sterling silver, 90% U.S. silver, and .999 bullion. Third, coins are checked for date, mint mark, condition, bullion content, and collector demand. Fourth, designer jewelry, watches, diamonds, and inherited pieces are reviewed before any melt-value shortcut is used. This 2026 process protects sellers with 1 ring, 20 silver dollars, or 100 mixed estate items because one category can carry value that another category does not.
What Should a Seller Bring for a Fast Same-Day Quote?
Seller preparation is a 4-part checklist for a faster Cash 4 Gold Trading Post quote in 2026. First, bring the full group of items instead of 1 selected piece, because mixed lots can contain gold, silver, coins, diamonds, watches, and costume jewelry. Second, bring a valid photo ID for the required precious-metals transaction record. Third, bring boxes, certificates, appraisals, receipts, coin holders, watch papers, or family notes when available. Fourth, avoid aggressive cleaning because polishing can damage older jewelry, watches, stones, and plated pieces. Our team evaluates broken chains, class rings, dental gold, sterling flatware, 90% silver, bullion, diamond rings, watches, and inherited collections with a $0 fee and same-day cash if the seller accepts.
Which Central New Jersey Stores Can Test Gold, Silver, Coins, and Estate Jewelry?
Cash 4 Gold Trading Post store coverage is a 8-location Central New Jersey network for gold, silver, coins, diamonds, watches, and estate jewelry testing. First, East Brunswick serves Old Bridge, South River, Spotswood, and Middlesex County sellers. Second, Middlesex serves Bound Brook, Dunellen, Piscataway, Green Brook, and South Plainfield. Third, Millstone serves Jackson, Freehold, Monroe, and western Monmouth County. Fourth, Manalapan serves Route 9 sellers from Marlboro, Englishtown, Freehold, Morganville, and Old Bridge. Fifth, New Brunswick serves Rutgers, Highland Park, Somerset, and downtown sellers. Sixth, Brick serves Ocean County and Jersey Shore sellers. Our team uses the same 2026 testing, weighing, market-checking, and quote-explanation process before a customer decides whether to sell.
Why Does Local Testing Beat an Online Calculator?
Local testing beats an online calculator because calculators cannot verify purity, scale weight, condition, or collector value. A gold calculator assumes a karat, a gram weight, and a market price. Cash 4 Gold Trading Post checks those assumptions at the counter. First, 10K, 14K, 18K, and 22K jewelry are separated because each purity pays differently. Second, sterling, 90% silver, .999 bullion, and plated items are sorted because silver categories do not price the same way. Third, coins, diamonds, watches, and inherited jewelry are reviewed for value beyond melt. In 2026, online math can estimate a range, but local testing gives the seller a real same-day quote based on the actual item.
