Selling gold in New Brunswick is simpler than most people expect. You walk into a licensed buyer, they test and weigh your gold in front of you, and you leave with cash the same day. The process takes 10 to 20 minutes for most visits.
Cash 4 Gold Trading Post has been buying gold at 51 Bayard St in New Brunswick since 2012. We are a licensed precious metals dealer, not a pawn shop. Gold and silver buying is the entire business, which is why our per-gram offers consistently beat what generalist shops pay.
What We Buy in New Brunswick
Gold in any condition and any karat. That includes:
Jewelry: rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, pendants, chains. Broken, tangled, or in perfect condition. 10K, 14K, 18K, 22K, 24K.
Gold coins: American Gold Eagles, Krugerrands, Canadian Maple Leafs, pre-1933 US gold coins, and foreign gold coins. We price coins for both gold content and any numismatic premium above melt value.
Gold bars: any size, any refiner. PAMP Suisse, Credit Suisse, Valcambi, Perth Mint, and others.
Dental gold: crowns, bridges, and dental scrap. Dental gold is typically 10K to 20K and has real metal value. Clean it up before you bring it in.
Scrap and broken gold: single earrings, bent rings, broken clasps, tangled chains, watch cases. The gold content does not change because the piece is damaged. We pay the same per gram for a broken chain as we do for a perfect one.
How the Process Works
Walk in during business hours. No appointment needed. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID, which New Jersey state law requires for all precious metals transactions.
Our appraiser spreads your pieces on a padded tray and tests each one using a Thermo Scientific XRF analyzer. This instrument reads the exact metal composition of your gold in about 15 seconds without scratching or damaging it. It gives a precise karat reading, not a guess. After testing, your pieces get weighed on certified digital scales. You watch both the test and the weigh-in at the counter.
We then calculate your offer using the live gold spot price at the time of your visit. You see the karat, the weight, and the math before we say a number. If the offer works for you, we pay cash on the spot. If it does not, pick up your gold and walk out. No pressure, no obligation.
What Gold Buyers in New Brunswick Actually Pay
Pawn shops in New Brunswick and the surrounding area typically offer 30 to 50 percent of spot melt value because their margins are built around a lending model, not straight purchasing. We are a dedicated buyer, which means our margin structure is different and our per-gram offers are consistently higher.
Here is the math that matters. At a gold spot price of $3,000 per troy ounce (roughly $96 per gram):
- 10K gold (41.7% pure): pure gold value of about $40 per gram
- 14K gold (58.3% pure): pure gold value of about $56 per gram
- 18K gold (75% pure): pure gold value of about $72 per gram
- 24K gold (99.9% pure): pure gold value of about $96 per gram
We pay a strong percentage of those values. Before you walk out the door, you will know exactly what karat your piece tested at, how much it weighed, and how we arrived at the number we offered.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I am getting a fair price for my gold in New Brunswick?
Check the live gold spot price before you come in. It is published on financial sites and on our website in real time. A legitimate buyer will tell you the exact karat your piece tested at and show you the math from spot price to offer. If a buyer just names a number without explaining the karat or weight, walk away.
Do I need an appointment to sell gold at the New Brunswick location?
No appointment needed. Walk in any time during business hours with your gold and a valid photo ID.
What if I have silver to sell too?
Bring it. We buy silver the same day at the same location. Sterling silver, pre-1965 coins, flatware, bullion. Everything gets evaluated in the same visit.
Can you buy gold coins at the New Brunswick store?
Yes. We buy gold coins and assess them for both metal content and any collector premium above melt. American Gold Eagles, Krugerrands, pre-1933 US gold coins, and foreign gold coins all qualify.
