Have you any useless articles made of gold? If so, does the present an- precedented price of gold interest you?
A few years ago, you must have seen pictures In the newspapers depleting quenes of people in London selling old trinkets for cash!
They were not "hard-ip” ·In tho majority of cases, but suddenly realised that gold was possessed of an unusual cash value. Old and useless watches and odds and ends realised cash!
To-day, the price of gold is higher than then, and you too can exchango what to you may be sheer junk, for dollars.
The price paid by me is based upon the true value, of gold to-day. In p.m.any case, I value what you have to offer free of charge. It is up to you whether you accept the offer.
