Maybe you’ve spent years building a collection of gold and silver coins, carefully selecting pieces that spoke to you or seemed like wise investments. Perhaps you’ve recently inherited a collection from a departed family member—boxes of coins, bars, and certificates you’re not sure how to evaluate or handle. Or you might be one of the many Americans who invested in precious metals years ago and now find yourself wondering about their current value and your options.
Whatever brought you here, you’ve likely discovered something frustrating: the precious metals industry often feels designed to work against you, not for you.
At Axiom Bullion, we exist to change that dynamic completely.
We are precious metals brokers, not dealers. This distinction isn’t just semantics—it’s the foundation of how we serve our clients. While dealers profit from the spread between what they pay you and what they charge the next buyer, we work exclusively as your advocate, representing your interests in every transaction with complete transparency about our fees and methods.
If you've ever walked into a coin shop or called a precious metals dealer, you've probably experienced the uncomfortable reality of how this industry traditionally operates. The person across the counter isn't working for you—they're working for profit margins, sales quotas, and inventory turnover.
Whether you’re a seasoned collector or someone who inherited precious metals, you deserve to understand exactly what you own and what your options are. You deserve transparent pricing, honest market analysis, and professional guidance that serves your interests—not someone else’s profit margins.
Your collection represents more than metal and money. For collectors, it represents years of careful selection, research, and investment. For those who inherited precious metals, these items often carry emotional significance alongside their monetary value. In both cases, you deserve a professional advocate who understands and respects both aspects of what these items mean to you.

That "competitive" price you're quoted often includes margins of 10-20% or more, buried within seemingly fair market rates. When gold is trading at $3,600 per ounce, a dealer might offer you $3,200 while immediately reselling at $3,800—but you never see that spread.
Dealers push certain products not because they're best for you, but because they're most profitable for the dealer. That "rare" coin might just be overstocked inventory they need to move.
The urgency, the limited-time offers, the "prices might change tomorrow" warnings—these aren't market realities, they're sales techniques designed to prevent you from shopping around or thinking critically about the transaction.
As a collector or inheritor, you may not know the intricate details of precious metals pricing, authentication, or market conditions. Traditional dealers profit from this knowledge gap instead of educating you to make informed decisions.
At Axiom Bullion, we’ve built our entire business model around a simple principle: we succeed only when our clients succeed. We are precious metals brokers who represent you in transactions, not dealers trying to profit from buying and selling against your interests.
As someone who has built a precious metals collection, you understand that not all gold and silver are created equal. You know the difference between numismatic value and melt value, the importance of condition and rarity, and the significance of proper documentation and provenance.
What you might not know is how to navigate the complex dealer network when you’re ready to sell part or all of your collection. This is where our representation becomes invaluable.

We charge a straightforward 3% flat fee for our brokerage services. That's it. No hidden spreads, no inventory markups, no surprise charges. You know exactly what you're paying and why, and our compensation is always aligned with getting you the best possible outcome.
We don't hold precious metals inventory, which means we have no incentive to push specific products or accept below-market prices for your items. Our only interest is negotiating the best possible terms for you from our network of trusted, vetted dealers.
We provide comprehensive analysis of your collection or inherited items, including authentication verification, current market valuations, and strategic recommendations based on your specific goals—whether that's liquidation, portfolio optimization, or understanding what you've inherited.
When you're ready to sell, we don't just accept the first offer or rely on posted buy prices. We actively negotiate with multiple dealers in our network, leveraging our industry relationships and market knowledge to maximize your returns. We're your dedicated champion in the marketplace.
Inheriting precious metals can be overwhelming. You might find yourself with boxes of coins, bars, certificates, and collectibles without knowing their true value or even what exactly you have. Traditional dealers often take advantage of this uncertainty, offering quick cash at prices far below market value.
We help you understand exactly what you've inherited, from common bullion coins to potentially rare numismatic pieces. Our detailed evaluation includes current market values, liquidity considerations, and options for each category of items.
When you decide to sell some or all of your inherited metals, we facilitate transactions with our dealer network on your behalf. We handle negotiations, ensure competitive offers, and advocate for your best interests throughout the process.
Unlike dealers eager to buy your metals quickly and cheaply, we take time to educate you about your inheritance. We explain market conditions, timing considerations, and help you make informed decisions without sales pressure.
We understand that inherited precious metals often carry emotional weight beyond their monetary value. We help you navigate decisions about what to keep, what to sell, and how to honor your loved one's legacy while meeting your current needs.
Traditional dealers hide their profits in the spread—the difference between what they pay you and what they charge the next buyer. These hidden margins can range from 5% to 20% or more, and you never know exactly how much profit they’re making at your expense.
At Axiom Bullion, our 3% brokerage fee is completely transparent. You see exactly what we earn, and more importantly, you see the actual prices being offered by dealers in our network. This transparency ensures you’re getting fair market value, not whatever margin a dealer thinks they can get away with.
The precious metals market is complex, with prices that fluctuate based on spot prices, premiums, market demand, condition, rarity, and dozens of other factors. As an individual seller, you’re at a significant disadvantage when negotiating with professional dealers who do this every day.
When we represent you, we level the playing field. We know the market, understand dealer tactics, and have established relationships that allow us to advocate effectively for your interests. We’re not just facilitating a transaction—we’re actively championing your position to ensure the best possible outcome.

These are precious metals valued primarily for their metal content. Common examples include American Gold Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs, and various sized gold and silver bars. While straightforward to value based on spot prices and premiums, significant price variations exist between dealers.
These are collected for rarity, condition, and historical significance beyond their metal content. Values can vary dramatically based on grading, authentication, and market demand. This is where dealer knowledge gaps often cost sellers the most money.
Coins that carry both metal value and some collectible premium. These require careful evaluation to ensure you're not selling collectible pieces at mere melt value.
Pre-1965 U.S. coins containing silver, often accumulated in bags or rolls. While called "junk," these have specific value calculations that uninformed sellers often don't understand.
The precious metals market is influenced by numerous factors that affect the value of your collection or inheritance. Spot prices for gold and silver fluctuate continuously based on global economic conditions, currency movements, and investor sentiment. However, the spot price is just the beginning of determining actual market value for your specific items.
Premiums over spot price vary significantly based on product type, condition, demand, and dealer inventory positions. A dealer overstocked with American Gold Eagles might offer lower premiums, while another actively seeking them might pay considerably more. This is why our representation model—facilitating competitive offers from multiple dealers—consistently achieves better results than accepting a single dealer’s offer.
Market timing also matters, but not in the way many dealers suggest with their high-pressure “prices could drop tomorrow” tactics. Real market timing involves understanding seasonal demand patterns, economic indicators, and having the patience to wait for optimal conditions when appropriate. We help clients understand these factors without the urgency and pressure traditional dealers employ.
Every traditional dealer you encounter has a fundamental conflict of interest: they profit by paying you less or charging you more. No matter how friendly or knowledgeable they seem, their business model puts them on the opposite side of the transaction from you.
Axiom Bullion eliminates this conflict entirely. We don’t buy from you or sell to you. We represent you, advocate for you, and facilitate transactions on your behalf. Our 3% fee structure means we only succeed when we achieve the best possible outcome for you. This alignment of interests changes everything about how precious metals transactions work.
Our team brings decades of precious metals market experience, but unlike traditional dealers, we use this expertise exclusively for our clients’ benefit. We understand authentication, grading, market dynamics, and dealer networks—knowledge we leverage to maximize value for those we represent.
When you work with us, you gain access to professional market insights without the sales agenda. We provide honest assessments, realistic valuations, and strategic guidance based solely on what serves your interests best. If market conditions suggest waiting, we’ll tell you. If certain pieces in your collection deserve special handling, we’ll ensure they receive it.
Over years of representing clients, we’ve developed relationships with numerous reputable dealers nationwide. These relationships give us unique advantages in negotiating on your behalf. Dealers know we represent serious sellers with properly evaluated materials, which often leads to better initial offers and more flexibility in negotiations.
More importantly, we know which dealers specialize in specific types of precious metals, who’s actively buying certain products, and where to find the best market for your particular items. This network access, combined with our advocacy approach, consistently delivers superior outcomes for our clients.
Your journey with Axiom Bullion begins with a no-obligation, confidential consultation. During this initial conversation, we learn about your situation, whether you’re a longtime collector looking to optimize holdings or someone who’s inherited precious metals and needs guidance.
We discuss your goals, timeline, and any concerns you have about the process. This isn’t a sales pitch—it’s an opportunity for you to understand how our representation works and decide if our services align with your needs. We’re transparent about our 3% fee structure and explain exactly how we facilitate transactions on your behalf.
If you choose to work with us, we conduct a thorough evaluation of your precious metals. For local clients, this can be done in person at a secure location. For those outside our immediate area, we provide detailed guidance for preliminary assessment and can arrange secure logistics for formal evaluation.
Our evaluation covers authentication, condition assessment, market categorization, and current valuation estimates. We provide you with a detailed inventory report that becomes your reference document, whether you decide to sell immediately, hold for better conditions, or keep certain pieces for sentimental reasons.
Based on your goals and our evaluation, we develop a customized strategy for your precious metals. This might involve:
We explain our recommendations clearly, ensuring you understand the rationale behind every suggestion. You maintain complete control over all decisions—we provide professional guidance and representation, but you decide what to sell and when.
When you’re ready to proceed, we actively represent you in the marketplace. This means:
We keep you informed at every step, presenting offers clearly and explaining the factors behind different bids. You see exactly what dealers are offering and make informed decisions based on complete information.
Once you accept an offer, we facilitate the transaction to ensure smooth, secure completion. We coordinate logistics, verify payment arrangements, and ensure all parties fulfill their obligations. Our involvement continues until you’ve received payment and the transaction is complete to your satisfaction.
Throughout this process, our 3% fee is calculated on the gross transaction amount and clearly documented. You know exactly what you’re paying for our representation, with no hidden charges or surprise fees.
Dealer markups are hidden within the prices they quote you. When a dealer offers to buy your gold for $3,400 per ounce when spot is $3,600, they might immediately resell it for $3,750—but you never see that spread. Our 3% fee is completely transparent and comes after we’ve negotiated the best possible price for you. If we facilitate a sale at $3,550 per ounce, you know exactly what you’re receiving and what you’re paying for our representation.
That’s perfectly fine and often wise. We help you understand which pieces might benefit from holding longer, which are optimal to sell in current conditions, and which might have sentimental value worth preserving. Our representation is customized to your specific needs and goals, not based on pushing maximum transactions.
We work exclusively with established, reputable dealers who have proven track records of fair dealing and reliable transactions. Our vetting process includes verification of credentials, business standing, and transaction history. We’ve built these relationships over years of representing clients, and we stake our reputation on every transaction we facilitate.
While we’re not tax advisors and cannot provide tax advice, we ensure all transactions are properly documented for your records. Precious metals transactions can have complex tax implications, and we recommend consulting with qualified tax professionals about your specific situation. We provide clear documentation that helps your tax advisor understand exactly what transpired.
We facilitate transactions involving IRA-eligible precious metals, working with approved custodians and ensuring all IRS requirements are met. However, we’re not investment advisors and don’t provide investment advice. Our role is to represent you in transactions, ensuring you get fair value whether buying IRA-eligible metals or liquidating existing IRA holdings.
The precious metals you’ve collected or inherited represent real value—monetary, emotional, or both. Yet the traditional dealer system is designed to capture as much of that value as possible for the dealer, not for you. Hidden spreads, pressure tactics, and conflicts of interest are built into their business model.
Axiom Bullion offers something completely different: professional representation that puts your interests first. We’re not trying to buy your metals cheaply or sell you overpriced products. We’re your advocate, your representative, your champion in navigating this complex market.
Whether you’re a seasoned collector who’s spent decades building your holdings, someone who’s inherited precious metals and needs guidance, or an investor looking to optimize your position, you deserve better than the traditional dealer model offers. You deserve transparency, professional representation, and someone genuinely working for your success.
