Sorry, I know there was another thread that I can't find right now.
My mom just e-mailed me saying she has some of my (creepy) Grandmas gold teeth and a few rings that she would like to have melted into some kind of bar or even sold as is for metling purposes.
Where is the best place to do this?
Kitco you have to be a client, she is not sure goldkit.com is trustworthy.
Thanks ahead of time for putting up with another gold post.

The teeth are a different story, either someone will lowball you and guess at the quality, or they will need to be assayed.
Dont know what it costs nowadays, I havent done that since the 80's with electronic scrap.
I would start with a local Jewelry dealer. Stay away from those mail order place where you send you stuff aand they send you a check.
You will probably get 50 percent of what it's really worth.
