Queensferry and the crossing
Queensferry sits at the point where the A494 and A548 meet the Dee, with the blue bridge over the river and Sandycroft, Garden City, Shotton and Mancot immediately around it. It is one of the busiest road junctions in the county and the natural through-point for traffic between Deeside, Chester and the north Wales coast.
What to have ready
- Your gold, unaltered. No cleaning, untangling, polishing or repairs. Repairs cost money a scrap valuation will not return.
- Sorted by mark if you can. Group 375, 585, 750 and 916 separately, and keep unmarked items apart.
- Anything unusual, kept back. Maker's names, large stones, coins, watches — these are identified before being treated as scrap.
- Photographic identification. A passport or driving licence. Recording the seller's identity is standard practice in the trade.
- Any paperwork you have. Old receipts, valuations or certificates help with pieces that may be worth more than their metal.

If you decide not to sell
Nothing changes hands. A valuation carries no charge and no obligation, and there is no reason to feel rushed — gold keeps indefinitely and the market will still be there next month.
