I was wondering what is the best way to get $ out of your gold and silver finds, do you melt them down or sell them as they are rings, necklaces and such? do you sell to jewelers pawn shops, etc? have a couple of gold finds i'd like to get some $ for and not sure about the best rout . thanks for any input.

Do not go to a pawn shop, you will get ripped off on the value.

Agree.......... no pawn shops. I tried a 14K mens ring and the guy told me 40 dollars.............and I walked out with a laugh
