Melt value of the metal alone. Weigh the whole piece and subtract stones and other materials first.
This is the melt value: what the silver in 9999 silver is worth at today's spot price and nothing more. A gram of 9999 silver contains 99.99% pure silver, so its melt value is 99.99% of the silver spot price per gram. It ignores craftsmanship, brand, stones and any collector value.
Buyers pay less than melt. Scrap buyers, pawn shops and refiners deduct refining costs and their margin, so an offer is usually a percentage of the figure above and varies with quantity, purity and the buyer. Use this page to know what the metal is worth before you accept one.
