FAQS

Q: Do you purchase non US currency?

Q: Do you purchase collectible currency?
A: For our U.S. dollars, we are searching for paper bills dated 1963 and before. For International currency, it can be from present date to past based on the collectability.

Q: How are payments issued?
A: Payments can be made by check, cash, wire transfer, or cashier’s check depending on what the client likes better.

Q: What is the price for gold / What is the price for silver?
A: The price is determined by the condition of the collection. If item is flawless and ready for bullion investment, then the return is highest. If it is in jewelry form, the return would be a little lower because there is a cost for making a “new metal”. Whether it is finished or in jewelry form, payment is based on real time prices and calculations.
