Sell Gold in San Antonio
Sell gold for cash in San Antonio — jewelry, scrap, coins, and bars tested and weighed in front of you, priced on the live market, paid same day with no commission.
Sell Gold for Cash in San Antonio
Lone Star Coins has been the place to sell gold in San Antonio for more than 40 years. Whether you are selling a single ring, a drawer of broken chains, a handful of gold coins, or a full estate, we test and weigh everything in front of you, show you the live market price on screen, and pay the same day.
We are a family-owned showroom on NW Loop 410 — not a mail-in service or a pop-up buyer. Walk in with your gold, watch the entire evaluation, and leave with a check or cash if you accept the offer. There is no appointment, no commission, and no obligation to sell.
What Gold We Buy
We buy gold in nearly every form: 10k, 14k, 18k, and 22k jewelry, broken and scrap gold, single earrings, class rings, dental gold, and gold watch cases. We also buy investment gold — American Gold Eagles, Gold Buffalos, Canadian Maple Leafs, Krugerrands, pre-1933 U.S. gold, and gold bars from recognized refiners.
You can bring mixed lots to one counter. Because we also buy silver, fine jewelry, diamonds, coins, and Rolex watches, an entire collection can be evaluated in a single visit instead of being split across multiple shops.
How We Price Your Gold
Every offer starts with verification. We confirm the metal and purity using non-destructive Sigma Metalytics testing (and acid or XRF when needed), check hallmarks, then weigh each item on a certified scale. We reference the current live gold price and walk through the calculation with you before you decide anything.
Some pieces are worth more than melt. When jewelry has designer, diamond, or collectible value — or when a coin carries a numismatic premium — we factor that into the conversation instead of treating everything as scrap.
Where to Sell Gold in San Antonio: Dealer vs Pawn vs Mail-In
Mail-in gold buyers ask you to ship your items away and trust an offer you never see calculated. Pawn shops are built around loans, not precious-metal expertise, and often staff a commissioned counter. As a dedicated precious-metals dealer, we keep the process transparent: you see the test, the weight, and the live spot price, and our team works without commission.
Selling locally also removes shipping risk and mail delays. If our number is not right for you, you simply walk out with your gold and a clearer understanding of what it is worth.
Why Gold Sellers Choose Lone Star Coins
San Antonio sellers come to us for trust, speed, and clarity: 40+ years in business, BBB A+ accredited, PCGS and NGC authorized, and second-generation family-owned. We pay immediately and can issue a check from Frost Bank or Chase, or pay in cash.
We are open six days a week with no appointment needed, and hablamos español. Bring one piece or an entire estate — the process and the transparency are the same.

Great service from the moment I walked in the doors. Friendly staff, Joshua assisted me with the authenticity of a couple coins. He answered the myriad of questions I had concerning buying and selling coins. The rates for selling and purchasing of precious metals are clearly displayed and are close to large market competitors. I’ll be back!
