What Is Scrap Gold?
Scrap gold refers to gold items that are no longer being used as jewelry or collectibles but still contain valuable precious metal. This includes broken pieces, mismatched items, damaged chains, or outdated styles. Even items that appear worn or unusable can still be worth money based on their gold content.
Gold is measured by purity (karat) and weight, not appearance. That means your old or broken items may be more valuable than you think.
Types of Scrap Gold We Buy
Gold Vault purchases a wide range of scrap gold items, including:
- Broken or tangled gold chains
- Single or mismatched earrings

- Scrap gold from estates or cleanouts
If it contains gold, there’s a strong chance we can evaluate it.
How Scrap Gold Is Valued
The value of scrap gold is determined by a few key factors:
Gold Purity (Karat)
Common purities include 10k, 14k, 18k, and 24k. Higher karat gold contains a greater percentage of pure gold and is typically worth more per gram.
Weight
Gold is weighed precisely to calculate its melt value. Every fraction of a gram matters.
Market Price
Gold prices fluctuate daily based on global markets. We base evaluations on current market conditions, not outdated pricing.
At Gold Vault, we believe in clear, transparent evaluations—so you understand how your offer is determined.
