Our Simple 3-Step Process

How Platinum Value Is Determined When You Sell

Platinum is one of the rarest precious metals, and its value is determined by purity, weight, and the current market spot price. Most platinum jewelry is stamped 950 or 900, indicating 95 percent or 90 percent pure platinum. Investment-grade platinum coins and bars, such as the American Platinum Eagle and the Canadian Platinum Maple Leaf, are typically .9995 fine.

Platinum is denser than gold, which means even small platinum items can carry significant weight and value. At Carolina Gold Exchange, we use professional testing methods to verify platinum content and calculate offers based on the live spot price on the day you visit. Every step is performed in front of you and explained before any offer is made.

Why Is Platinum Sometimes Worth Less Than Gold?

Many people are surprised to learn that platinum is not always priced higher than gold. Historically, platinum traded at a premium, but market conditions have shifted over the past decade due to changes in industrial demand, mining supply, and investor behavior.

The platinum spot price fluctuates independently from gold and silver. Regardless of how platinum compares to gold on any given day, the metal still carries substantial value based on its weight and purity. If you have platinum items and are unsure whether now is a good time to sell, you can check current platinum prices on our price comparison page or bring your items in for a free, no-obligation evaluation.

How Do I Know if My Jewelry Is Platinum?

Platinum jewelry is usually stamped with markings that indicate its purity. Common stamps include PT, PLAT, 950, and 900. Platinum has a distinctive weight to it. It is noticeably heavier than white gold or silver, which can be a quick indicator before testing.

However, white gold is sometimes mistaken for platinum because it looks similar. The only reliable way to confirm whether a piece is platinum is through professional testing. At Carolina Gold Exchange, we test every item brought in to verify its metal content before making an offer. If an item turns out to be white gold rather than platinum, we will let you know and can still provide an appraisal based on its gold content.
