A graded gold coin in a PCGS or NGC slab carries its grade, its authenticity and its market price right on the label — and we pay for all three. LBC Pawn Cash For Gold 3% Loans* buys certified gold coins in Boston every week, from a single MS70 Gold Eagle to full registry-quality collections of pre-1933 gold.
Text a photo of the front and back of the slab — label included — to 857-867-6468 and we will quote you by text before you make the drive. Accept the number and you get paid the same day — cash in hand, or by check if you prefer. Better collections are handled privately — coin deals over $2,000 are done in our private VIP room.

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 graded gold here?
Mail-in buyers quote one number sight unseen and re-price your coin after it arrives — when it is already out of your hands.
Online marketplaces clip double-digit fees, and a certified rarity in the mail invites chargebacks, return games and 'wrong coin' claims.
At LBC Pawn your slab is verified against the cert database in front of you, priced against real market results for that grade, 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.
What a loan costs — in plain numbers
| If you borrow | After month 1 | After month 2 | After month 3 | After month 4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $100 | $111 | $114 | $117 | $120 |
That first month includes the one-time 8% charge; after that it is a flat 3% per month. No hidden fees, no surprises — the full cost is printed on your ticket.
*Pawn loans: 3% per month interest plus a one-time 8% charge in the first month only. Example: a $100 loan costs $111 after month 1, $114 after month 2, $117 after month 3 and $120 after month 4.

Questions we hear
- How do I get a quote for my graded gold coin?
- 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.
- Does the grade on the slab really change what you pay?
- Yes — grade is the price. An MS70 Gold Eagle or a high-grade Saint-Gaudens is worth meaningfully more than the same coin in a lower grade, and we price the exact coin, grade and label in front of us against current market results.
- Can I borrow against my graded gold coin 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.
