Gold Hits Record Price

TV screens, newspapers and computer monitors have been alive this past week with the news: the price of gold has hit record highs.

When gold hit $1,277.50 last week it had attained a new height that few would have thought possible only a few years ago. Many analysts believe the price will remain high should the U.S. Federal Reserve decide this week to continue to keep interest rates low for an “extended period.”

The rise in the price of gold means that the time has never been better for men and women all across the country to collect cash for unwanted or broken gold items that otherwise would just be collecting dust.

Congressman Calls for Audit of U.S. Gold Holdings

A Republican Congressman from Texas is reportedly planning to introduce a bill calling for an independent audit of the U.S. gold held at Fort Knox.

Fort Knox claims that billions of dollars worth of gold bullion are stored away in its Kentucky vaults. The secure facility is encased in 750 tons of reinforced steel, as well as thousands of cubic feet of concrete and granite.

Cash4Gold’s facilities are somewhat smaller, but also incredibly secure. Armed guards patrol the premises, which is under 24-hour surveillance from high-definition cameras. A whole range of security procedures and systems are in place to ensure that the broken and unwanted gold items that are processed daily are secure.

Cash4Gold Getting Back to Meltin' Gold

Cash4Gold is gearing up for a hot end to the summer. Not only did Cash4Gold create the mail-in gold buying industry, the company is well known internationally for running one of the most successful direct response campaigns ever.

Stay tuned in the coming weeks for further details and be on the lookout for some fun new (and classic) Cash4Gold ads.

Gold Bar Stolen From Florida Museum

At Cash4Gold we always follow gold-related news. An unusual item crossed our desks today—thieves brazenly stole a $550,000 gold bar from a Key West, Florida, museum.

The gold bar was taken from the Mel Fisher Maritime Museum, where it has been housed for the past 25 years. The bar was discovered by Mel Fisher and his crew in 1980 on the ocean floor at the scene of a shipwreck.

The museum's insurance company has offered a $10,000 reward for the return of the 16.5-karat gold bar, which weighs 74.85 ounces. Its gold is worth about $50,000, but the uniqueness of the piece places the bar's value at $550,000, according to the museum.

Such an unusual item is unlikely to ever make its way to Cash4Gold. Most customers send in a collection of various broken or unwanted gold, silver or platinum items in exchange for cash. Cash4Gold has an entire system of security procedures in place to identify suspicious items, and the company utilizes various security practices at its secure, state-of-the-art processing facility, setting the standard for the mail-in gold buying industry that it created. Cash4Gold's security screening process was prominently featured on a television report from WAFF in Huntsville, Alabama.

To Have but Not to Hold

For years there has been discussion about the divorce rate in America, with some outlets reporting that the divorce rate could be as high as 50 percent. Reliable statistics on the topic are hard to come by, but a conservative estimate places the number somewhere north of 40 percent.

A figure that we would be interested in seeing is what percentage of brides and grooms exchange rings made of gold or platinum. Platinum wedding bands have increased in popularity during the past few years, and gold has remained popular.

Cash4Gold accepts gold, silver and platinum items. We melt them down in our furnaces more than 14 days after our customers accept our offer for the unwanted items. If you have a gold, silver or platinum ring given to you by a former husband or wife and you are looking for a way to get those items out of your life, then why not give Cash4Gold a try?
