Buy & sell · Detroit

Detroit gold and coin dealer and buyer, a mile off I-75.

A gold and coin dealer and buyer for Detroit: the counter in Madison Heights sells coins and bullion off the live board and buys them back the same way. The city has no shortage of places that buy gold, and most price by eye. Twenty minutes up I-75, this counter prices by measurement: a purity test you watch, a scale facing you, a number read off the live board before you decide. Buyers from Detroit get the identical board going the other way.

Asked from Detroit

Coming in from Detroit

How do I get there from Detroit?
North on I-75 from downtown or the New Center, across 8 Mile and the county line, off at 11 Mile and a block east past John R — twenty minutes from most of the city.
What crosses the counter from Detroit?
Both sides of the ledger: inherited gold and silver coins from the old neighborhoods, family silver, and buyers who would rather cross 8 Mile for a counter than order from a website.
Do I need an appointment?
No. It is a freeway run up I-75, and most people come on a weekday afternoon without calling. Book a table for an estate that fills the trunk or a large bullion purchase.
Is there a gold and silver coin dealer near Detroit?
Yes — the coin dealer twenty minutes north of downtown on I-75. The case carries sovereign gold and silver coins at spot plus a stated premium, and a Detroit collection coming in is sorted by date and mint before any melt figure comes up.

Before you come in

Good to know

No sales tax: Michigan exempts investment coins and bullion (MCL 205.54s), so the price you are quoted is the metal and the premium, nothing added.

Selling? Bring a Michigan driver's license or state ID. State law (MCL 445.484) has every dealer record it with each purchase.

Settling an estate? It goes through the Wayne County Probate Court in Detroit, and an estate under $53,000 can usually pass on an Affidavit of Decedent's Successor instead.

Private appointments

Bring the whole estate, or the whole order, to one table.
