Pennsylvania's Precious Metal Sale Regulation Law excludes coins, ingots and bullion. ID and record requirements under that law apply to covered gold, silver and platinum items, such as jewelry and silverware; municipal requirements and shop policies may differ.
Covered items must remain unaltered for five full working days after the purchase report is filed.

Questions to ask Augusta Jewelers and Coins
We couldn't confirm these from public sources, so ask before you go:
- What would you pay today for a 1 oz American Silver Eagle, and for $1 face value of pre-1965 silver? (Ask two shops the same question to compare.)
- Is an appraisal free, or free only if I sell to you? Do you put it in writing?
- How do you pay for larger amounts — cash, check or wire — and is there a cash limit?
- Do I need an appointment to sell a whole collection?
