Oakton Coins & Collectibles buys and sells platinum bullion, as well as platinum jewelry and scrap platinum.
Platinum doesn’t come up as often as gold or silver, but it’s still an important precious metal with both industrial and investment demand. It’s often mistaken for silver, and many people don’t realize they have it until it is properly tested.
Platinum Items We Commonly See
- Platinum bullion coins such as American Platinum Eagles and other investment-grade coins
- Platinum bars and other forms of bullion
- Platinum jewelry including rings, chains, and other pieces
- Scrap platinum and damaged jewelry
- Industrial platinum items that may require testing to identify
While platinum is less common, we regularly evaluate it when it comes in. Most items are purchased based on their platinum content, though some coins and bars trade similarly to gold bullion and silver bullion.
Platinum and Palladium Jewelry and Scrap
We also buy platinum in jewelry form, including worn, broken, or outdated pieces. Even small amounts can have value based on the metal itself, much like gold jewelry, broken jewelry, and old wedding rings.
Older platinum pieces were sometimes mixed with palladium. They can look almost identical, but they’re different metals and not something you can reliably tell apart without proper testing.
Platinum is also found in some industrial items. If you’re not sure what you have, we can take a look and identify it in person using the same transparent process we use for gold testing and precious metal evaluation.
A Straightforward Way to Sell
Selling platinum in person keeps things simple. We test, evaluate, and explain what you have on the spot. This is especially useful when platinum is mixed in with unwanted jewelry, inherited valuables, coins, bullion, or estate items.
If you choose to sell, payment is immediate.
