Nicole...you're in Joisey
...I am certain there has to be pawn shops up there. Most pawn shops or custom jewelry stores will buy your gold. I sold mine a couple of months ago and got 1500 bucks. And that was when the gold price had dropped.
Hold on a sec...I'll get you a link to a site where it lists the daily values. Understand you do not get this amount...the jewelry buyer buys from you..then resells it.
