How it works
1. Text for a quote first. Front and back photos of your coins to 857-867-6468 — get a real quote by text before you travel.
2. Bring them in. 1107 Commonwealth Ave, Boston — Mon–Fri 11–6:30, Sat 11–4:30. Your coins are weighed and tested at the counter, in front of you — and deals over $2,000 move to our private VIP room.
3. Get paid the same visit. Cash in hand the same day — or a check if you prefer. Rather keep your coins? Borrow against them at 3% per month* and redeem them later.
Why sell your Gold Eagles here?
Mail-in bullion buyers ask you to ship thousands of dollars in gold across the country, wait for their inspection, and hope the payment matches the quote.
Online marketplaces clip double-digit fees, and a five-figure coin in the mail invites chargebacks and return games.
At LBC Pawn your Eagles are tested in front of you, priced against the live gold spot price, and paid the same day — cash or check, your choice.
Big collection? It stays private
Coin deals are personal, and at LBC Pawn they stay that way. Any transaction over $2,000 is handled in our private VIP room — away from the counter and the front door — where your coins are tested and priced in front of you. One coin or a full estate collection, nobody else in the shop needs to know your business.

Questions we hear
- How do I get a quote for my American Gold Eagle?
- Text a photo of the front and back of your coins to 857-867-6468. We reply with a quote based on the live gold spot price, and the final number is confirmed at the counter after a quick test in front of you.
- Do I get paid in cash or by check?
- Your choice. We pay cash in hand the same day, or write you a check if you prefer — same visit, no waiting, no payment holds.
- Do I need the capsule, tube or certificate for my Gold Eagle?
- No. Original mint packaging is welcome but never required — every coin is tested on our Sigma Metalytics verifier at the counter either way, so loose and secondary-market Eagles are priced just as fairly.
- Can I borrow against my American Gold Eagle instead of selling?
- Yes. Loans run at 3% per month* (plus the one-time 8% first-month charge), up to 4 months and renewable — your coins are tagged and stored securely until you redeem them.
