Idaho Gold & Silver

What a wonderful place! I took my young son tonight because he has developed a passion for coins. The owner and his wife spent the better part of an hour pulling out historical coin after coin (Roman! Greek!) And telling us the back story and it was so cool. Seriously... Nero... Hadrian... Augustus... Alexander... you are literally holding history in your palm.nn5 stars for having cool stuff. Another 5 for being such gracious hosts.

The spot price of silver was $24.98 an ounce, the day I went there with 16.7 troy ounces of gold plated 0.999 sterling silver ingot stamp replicas, from the US Mint, to sell. They quoted me a purchase price of $16.00 an ounce. Thats $417 vs. $267. I understand they've got to pay rent and make a profit, but a 36% markdown? They also acted as though they where doing me a favor by taking them? The whole exchange left a bad taste in my mouth and I walk away feeling I'd been taken advantage of.

We had a bunch of silver and some gold items from a recently deceased relative. I took it in and the service was prompt and highly competent. I walked out with a nice amount of money. Would definitely go there again.

I have sold many coins and bullion to them! I would go to anyone else when I am in need to sell/buy some Precious metals. Thank you for the great conversation and advise I have gotten over the years!!

I previously left a negative review after experiencing an overly political visit to the shop. I wholeheartly believe everyone has the right to their own opinion, I just wasn't happy to have it shoved in my face.nnThe store is ran by kind people who are fair in their dealings and prices. I would recommend anyone to buy or sell here.
