How Does Silver Item Buying Work in Quad Cities and surrounding areas?

Our evaluation process starts with careful examination of each piece to identify authentic silver markings versus plated indicators. We look for stamps like Sterling, Ster, Lion Passant, Star, and numerical marks indicating silver content, while explaining why markings such as Plate, EP, EPNS, NS, Nickel Silver, or A1 indicate lower-value items we typically do not buy.


During each appointment, you can expect thorough explanations of what makes certain pieces valuable while others aren't worth purchasing. We test silver content using professional methods and provide transparent information about current market values. Condition doesn't eliminate value — tarnished, dented, or damaged sterling silver still contains precious metal worth buying. Quad City Pickers accepts all conditions and provides quick on-site evaluations with same-day payment.


Whether you're clearing out inherited items or downsizing household belongings, we handle everything from single pieces to complete silver services with equal professionalism and attention to detail.
