VENDRE DE L’ARGENTERIE
Even if you have damaged or mismatched silverware pieces, drop by any Canada Gold store to see how much your items are worth. Free expert valuations and no appointment necessary!
You can also check your silverware for some of the hallmarks and stamps on our Stamps, Marks, and Hallmarks page.
Canada Gold will also purchase any collection of silver jewellery >$50 in value.
Most flatware sets are silver plated, meaning they are made with copper, nickel or brass and have only a tiny layer of silver coating the outside. Unfortunately we cannot purchase these silver plated items because refining plated items results in more fees than the actual silver is worth.
We do not buy items with the following stamps (as they are all plated):
- Rogers (bros, sons)
NOTE: Most Rogers pieces will have the year 1847 stamped on them. This is not the year the piece was made, but the year the company was established. - Community
- Regency
- EP, EPNS, EPC, EPB (these letters indicate electroplated silver over nickel, copper and brass)
- 90 (this number indicates German silver, not 90% pure silver, but a silver plate which is 90% pure)
- and anything with the word “plate” included in the stamp
If you’re unsure whether your items are silver plated, call us toll-free at 1 888 682 5832 or drop by your nearest Canada Gold location for a free estimate.
