Upload Coins for ReviewUnderstand the estimate
Bullion and common-date coins are often driven primarily by current metal value. Rare, graded and collectible coins can carry additional value based on scarcity, condition and demand.
This is a plain-language explanation, not a promise that every coin is priced by one fixed formula.

Our prices are generally higher due to the significant cost savings of not having to pay all of the costs and fees associated with having multiple retail storefronts, thus we pass that savings on to you in the form of higher payments. We also skip the middle man and thus we can work on slimmer margins by paying you more directly. We also tie our prices directly to real verifiable spot prices, thus you get what the item is worth.
When it comes to spot prices, such as the spot price for gold or silver, there is often confusion over how the spot price is determined. Below we outline what spot prices are and where they come from.
The spot price is simply the price at which a commodity could be transacted and delivered on right now, as opposed to a futures or forward contract. The spot price of gold refers to the price of one ounce of gold, and the spot price of silver refers to the price of one ounce of silver, both of specific fineness requirements.
Gold, silver and other commodity prices are affected by many factors and can move through periods of low or high volatility. Spot gold prices may be influenced by economic data, geopolitical news or events, Federal Reserve action or comments, and other drivers.
Supply and demand for gold, silver and other commodities play out across world markets in a constant state of price discovery, occurring around the clock on exchanges including New York's COMEX, London, Hong Kong, Zurich, Australia and Shanghai. The COMEX exchange is the most well recognized for gold trading, and spot gold prices are derived from futures contracts traded there.
In short, spot simply refers to the price at which one could transact and take delivery now, rather than at some future date.
