Sell Silver on Bayard St in New Brunswick, NJ

New Brunswick's Diverse Silver Comes Through Our Door

New Brunswick is one of the most culturally diverse cities in Central Jersey. That means the silver we see at our Bayard St store comes from everywhere. Indian silver jewelry with intricate filigree work. European hallmarked serving pieces. Latin American silver coins. Middle Eastern bangles and cuffs. We have tested and purchased silver from dozens of countries, and we know how to evaluate each type accurately.

Not all silver is the same purity. American sterling is .925. Some European silver runs at .800 or .830. Mexican silver is often .950, which is actually purer than sterling. Old Russian silver has its own hallmark system entirely. Our XRF analyzer reads the exact silver content no matter where a piece was made. That means you get paid based on what your silver actually contains, not on a guess.

We are at 51 Bayard St, right in downtown. If you live in Highland Park, you can walk across the bridge and be at our door in minutes. Customers from Somerset, Franklin, North Brunswick, and Piscataway drive in regularly. Route 1 and Route 27 both connect straight to us.

Silver prices have been climbing steadily. With spot prices holding above $80 per troy ounce through early 2026, that old silver sitting in a drawer is worth more than it has been in years. A single sterling silver serving spoon can weigh 3 to 4 ounces. A full flatware set for 12 might weigh 80 ounces or more. Do the math. That is real money. For a full breakdown of what silver items are worth right now, see our 2026 silver price guide.

Here is something a lot of people do not realize: silver-plated items look identical to solid sterling at first glance. We get customers who bring in what they think is a solid silver tray, and it turns out to be plated. That is fine. We will not waste your time. We test everything and give you the honest answer. If a piece is plated, we tell you, and we will still look at anything else you have that might be solid.

Our process takes about 15 minutes. We sort your items by type. We test purity. We weigh everything on a certified digital scale. Then we calculate your payout based on that day's silver spot price. You see everything we do. No back room, no mystery numbers. If the offer works for you, we pay cash right then. If not, you take your silver home.

We buy silver jewelry, flatware, tea sets, coins (pre-1965 US coins are 90% silver), bullion bars, rounds, and scrap. Broken chains, single earrings, bent forks. Condition does not matter for melt value.

Stop by our New Brunswick store any weekday 10 to 6 or Saturday 10 to 5. You can also call (732) 543-1313 with questions, or check our silver buying page for more details. For all our store locations, we offer the same fair pricing and free appraisals.

Step 1: Sort. We separate your items by type. Flatware, jewelry, coins, and bullion each get handled differently because they often have different purities.

Step 2: Test. Our XRF spectrometer scans each piece and displays the exact percentage of silver content. This is non-destructive. Your items are not scratched or damaged during testing.

Step 3: Weigh. We use a certified troy ounce scale. You watch the weight reading. Troy ounces are the standard for precious metals (one troy ounce is about 31.1 grams, slightly heavier than a regular ounce).

Step 4: Calculate. We multiply the silver weight by the current spot price, then apply our payout percentage. You see the full calculation.

Step 5: Pay. Accept the offer and you get cash on the spot. Decline and you leave with your silver. Zero pressure either way.
