What is the drive from East Hanover to the Middlesex store?
Most East Hanover drivers take Route 10 west through Whippany to I-287, follow I-287 south past Morristown and Bedminster, get off at Route 28, and run east through Bound Brook. In Middlesex, Route 28 becomes Bound Brook Road, and the store is at number 748 with parking at the door. Plan on roughly 35 to 40 minutes outside rush hour.
Because it is a real drive, call (732) 629-7600 first if you have a question about a specific piece. Middlesex is also open Saturdays, handy if you work in the week.
East Hanover, from farm township to Route 10 suburb
East Hanover broke away from the old Hanover Township in 1928, when it was still largely farmland along the Passaic River. The river still marks its eastern edge against Livingston and Roseland in Essex County, and River Road follows it. Route 10, and later I-280 in the 1970s, turned it into commuter country, and today it is a suburb of single-family streets off Mount Pleasant Avenue and Ridgedale Avenue, with Hanover Park High School on Mount Pleasant Avenue serving East Hanover and Florham Park teenagers.
It is also a town with deep Italian-American roots, and that shows up on the scale. Gold bought on family trips to Italy, or given at baptisms, communions and weddings, is often stamped 750, the European mark for 18k. Heavy rope and link chains, religious medals, cornicello horn charms and gold bracelets all fall into that group. At 18k, those pieces hold far more gold per gram than the 10k and 14k jewelry that fills most American drawers, so sorting them out matters.
How an East Hanover lot is sorted before any number is spoken
The XRF analyzer reads every piece, so a chain stamped 750 is checked for real rather than taken on trust, and an unmarked bracelet gets its true karat instead of a guess. Then the lot is split: 18k in one pile, 14k (stamped 585) in another, 10k in a third, sterling apart from silver plate, and coins set aside to be looked at by date and condition before metal is even discussed. Diamonds are counted apart from their settings and graded on their own. Every pile gets its own figure, and you watch it happen.
For a parent's house full of jewelry, the estate buyers service covers house calls and executor paperwork, and the New Jersey estate jewelry guide shows what to set aside before anyone sees it. The gold jewelry page explains how each karat is valued.

Engagement rings and anniversary bands: stone first, then metal
A diamond ring gets two separate valuations. The stone is examined under magnification for carat, cut, color and clarity, with a GIA or AGS report if you have one, and the platinum or gold mounting is tested and weighed on its own. Treating them apart is what stops a strong center stone from being paid at scrap. Loose diamonds, studs and tennis bracelets go through the same process. The diamond buyers page and where to sell an engagement ring go further.

Where is the nearest Cash 4 Gold Trading Post to East Hanover, NJ?
Our Middlesex store at 748 Bound Brook Rd, Middlesex, NJ 08846, roughly 35 to 40 minutes away by Route 10, I-287 and Route 28. We have no Morris County store. Phone (732) 629-7600.
Do you buy 18k Italian gold stamped 750?
Yes. 750 is the European hallmark for 18k gold, and those chains, medals and bracelets are tested on the XRF analyzer and valued at their true karat, never averaged in with 10k or 14k pieces.
Is the Middlesex store open on Saturday?
Yes. Middlesex keeps Saturday hours along with weekday hours and is closed Sunday. The current hours are shown on this page, and walk-ins are welcome.
Can I ask about a piece before driving down from East Hanover?
Yes, and on a longer trip it is worth doing. Call (732) 629-7600 and describe what you have, including any stamps. A firm offer still needs the piece on the counter, because purity and weight are measured in person.
How is the offer calculated?
From the purity reading, the weight on a certified scale, and the live spot price that day. Collector coins and diamonds are valued separately on top of that. Your town has nothing to do with it.
What do I need to bring to sell gold in New Jersey?
A valid government photo ID such as a driver's license or passport, which state law requires for every precious-metals sale. No receipts, boxes or appraisals are needed.
