How we value gold

Gold buying is not based on a flat one-size-fits-all figure. Each item is assessed in context, with the live market forming the starting point.

From there, we consider factors such as the type of gold item, its likely purity range and weight profile to arrive at a clear, competitive buying price.

This allows us to provide a competitive and commercially realistic offer, while keeping the process grounded in the current market rather than guesswork.

The charts below show the live market as a useful guide, though final offers are always based on in-person assessment.

Built to feel trustworthy, not rushed

For many people, selling gold is not an everyday transaction. That is why the page and the process both need to feel measured, clear, and professional.

A booking can help make your visit smoother, but if you are nearby, walk-ins are welcome too.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an appointment?

No. Walk-ins are welcome. Booking ahead simply helps create a smoother visit.

What types of gold do you buy?

We buy a range of gold items including nuggets, bullion, jewellery, scrap gold, broken pieces and some coins.

Do you buy natural gold nuggets?

Yes. Lucky Strike Gold purchases natural gold nuggets as well as other gold items from prospectors, collectors, and members of the public. Whether your gold was found in the Victorian goldfields or inherited as part of a collection, we can assess and purchase it.

How is the value of gold determined?

Gold is weighed using professional scales and valued based on the current gold price and the purity of the gold. Lucky Strike Gold uses advanced testing equipment, including XRF analysis, to accurately determine gold content in jewellery, scrap gold, and other refined items. Natural gold nuggets may also be assessed based on their weight, purity, and unique characteristics.

Do you buy gold jewellery or scrap gold?

Yes. In addition to natural gold nuggets, Lucky Strike Gold also purchases gold jewellery, scrap gold, and inherited gold items. These items are tested using professional equipment to determine purity before being valued according to the current gold price.

Am I locked in if I get a quote?

No. You are under no obligation to proceed if you decide not to accept the offer.

What if my gold is wet or stored in water?

That’s completely fine, however we do ask that all gold is dried prior to assessment. Excess water can affect the accuracy of weighing, so drying your gold helps ensure a precise and fair valuation.

Do I need identification?

Yes, you will be required to provide identification as part of the transaction process.
