Buying old gold
The basis for calculating the value is always the fine gold content or the gold alloy at the current market price. In our store , we test the gold for authenticity and determine the alloy.
The following gold alloys are common in Germany:
- 333 gold also (8 carats),
- 585 gold (14 carat),
- 750 gold (18 carat) and also
- 999 gold (24 carats).
999 gold is the purest gold and therefore the most valuable.
Every gram counts

We take our time and evaluate your precious items accurately and transparently, down to the gram. As a diamond appraiser and colored gemstone expert, Lutz Reuer also knows the potential values of diamonds, pearls, and colored gemstones incorporated into the jewelry.
The determined amount can be paid out in cash or the jewelry or coins can be melted down and a new piece of jewelry created for you from the precious metal in our studio.
The latter, in particular, has made numerous customers happy, as they often associate special emotions with an old piece of jewelry. When it's given a new lease of life, it once again becomes your radiant and beautiful daily companion.
