Whether you’ve inherited fine jewelry or simply have pieces you no longer need, we will happily evaluate them for you and offer the best price.

How Much Is My Jewelry Worth?

We offer free appraisals and will provide you with an instant cash or check offer based on the current market value of your jewelry. Our expert appraisers will take various factors into account, such as:

  • Design

  • Mineral and metal content

  • Condition and desirability

  • Artistic value and uniqueness

  • Age of the piece

Does Retail Value Influence the Offer?

While retail value may play a role in determining the offer, our pricing is primarily based on the composition, condition, and demand for the piece. We focus on providing fair offers based on the true worth of your jewelry, not inflated retail prices.

Can I Visit Your Coin Shop?

Absolutely! Oakton Coins & Collectibles is conveniently located at the corner of Kenton and Oakton in the heart of Skokie. We’re easily accessible for both Skokie residents and those from surrounding areas in the Chicago region. Our location offers complimentary parking, making it a hassle-free experience to have your items appraised in person.

How Do I Know I’m Getting the Best Price for My Jewelry?

We encourage you to compare offers from other jewelry buyers before visiting us. We analyze each piece individually and offer fair, high-value prices based on current market trends. Unlike many other buyers, our offers are cash offers, meaning you’ll receive payment immediately—either by cash or check.

How Is Oakton Coins & Collectibles Different from a Pawn Shop?

Oakton Coins & Collectibles is very different from a pawn shop. Unlike pawn shops, which generally offer lowball offers for a wide range of items, we specialize in high-value jewelry and collectibles, ensuring that you receive the highest possible payout for your fine jewelry and diamonds. We cater to a more sophisticated clientele and focus on fair, transparent transactions.

Can I Get More Money by Selling My Jewelry to an Auction House?

While auction houses are a reputable option, selling through them often comes with high fees, a lengthy waiting period, and no guarantee your item will sell. Auctions typically charge fees regardless of the sale outcome, and it can take months to receive payment if your item does sell. At Oakton Coins & Collectibles, you’ll receive immediate payment and no fees—we buy your items directly.

Do You Buy Gold?

Yes, we buy all forms of gold! Whether it’s gold jewelry, coins, or scrap gold, Oakton Coins & Collectibles is known for providing the highest payouts in the area. We’ll purchase any gold items, regardless of their condition.

Do You Buy Watches?

We also purchase fine watches, including pocket watches and designer timepieces. Whether your watch is a vintage collectible or a more modern designer piece, we offer fair market value for it.

What Else Does Oakton Coins & Collectibles Buy?

In addition to gold, silver, and jewelry, we specialize in purchasing a wide range of collectibles, including:

  • U.S. and foreign coins

  • WWII memorabilia

  • Paper currency

  • Stamps and more

If you have valuable collectibles, Oakton Coins & Collectibles is the place to bring them.
