I Pay Top Dollar for Gold, Jewelry, Diamonds, Coins, and More

If you want cash fast, gather up the treasures in your house that you no longer want and call me.  I pay top dollar, guaranteed!  I buy gold.  I buy world class jewelry, diamonds, and other gemstones.

My name is Sam Walker, but I’m known as Gemologist Sam.  I’ve been a Master Jeweler since 1978 and am GIA (Gemological Institute of America) certified.

While I specialize in buying gold and world class jewelry, I also pay cash for regular jewelry, silver, watches, class rings, scrap gold, platinum, diamonds, gems, rare paper currency, coins, and almost anything historical.

Where to Find Sunken Treasure

To locate sunken ships and read stories about lost treasures waiting to be found, check out the International Registry of Sunken Ships.   They have a database which currently includes 113,210 “wrecks” worldwide. 

While you have to pay a small fee for detailed reports relating to whichever state or country you’re interested in, there is a lot of free information too.  For example, if you click on the “Treasure Stories” link, you can read about a wide variety of treasures still waiting to be uncovered.

If you want a report that is strictly on treasure ships, be sure to let them know.  Otherwise you’ll get a complete list of sunken ships including fishing boats and cargo freighters.  On the other hand, you might find some unexpectedly-interesting items on these ships as well.

This video, made by the employees of the Bermuda Maritime Museum, is a must-see for treasure hunters.

Tips for Using Your Metal Detector

No matter how simple or sophisticated the metal detector is that you choose, your first step is to read the instruction book!  Seriously; read it carefully.  Many of them have online tutorials available as well.  It’s not as simple as turning on the power and waiting for it to beep or make some kind of sound.  You need to know how to adjust its sensitivity and what the different sounds mean and how to take care of it.

Practice with several items until you become familiar with the sound it makes when it finds a pull-tab from a beer can, a nail, a coin, and a gold ring (for example).  It will save you time digging for junk that you don’t want.
