Sell Diamonds With a Fair Review Before You Decide
A diamond is not priced by size alone. Cut, colour, clarity, carat weight, certification, setting, condition, and current market demand can all affect what it may be worth.
At B&W Coins, we review diamond rings, loose diamonds, certified stones, inherited pieces, and diamond jewellery with care. We explain what we see in simple terms, and if you choose to sell, we make a fair offer based on the diamond and any precious metal setting.

What Does It Mean to Sell a Diamond?
Selling a diamond is different from selling gold or silver. Gold and silver have clear market prices that update throughout the day. Diamonds do not work that way each stone is evaluated individually based on its specific characteristics.
The same carat weight can result in very different values depending on cut, colour, and clarity. A certificate from a recognized grading lab helps confirm these details and builds trust in the review process.
Whether your diamond is set in a ring, loose in a box, or part of a piece of jewellery, we help you understand what the key factors are before you decide to sell.
Types of Diamond Jewellery We Buy
Diamond Rings
We review engagement rings, anniversary rings, and other diamond rings by looking at the diamond and the metal setting separately.
Loose Diamonds
Loose diamonds can be checked more directly for cut, colour, clarity, carat weight, condition, and certification if available.
Diamond Jewellery
Pendants, earrings, bracelets, and other diamond jewellery are reviewed for both the stones and the gold or platinum setting.
Certified Diamonds
Estate pieces, family jewellery, and certified diamonds are reviewed with any GIA, IGI, AGS, appraisal, receipt, or original paperwork you have.

Pretty scummy experience and shady tactics. If you’re going to advertise “$12 over spot,” then honor it (check your ads)— because that premium is already ridiculous. On Jan 30, 2026, the price should’ve been around $124 per Silver Maple, yet when I called the store I was quoted $149.
This looks like you’re trying to offload inventory using higher past prices, while you have no problem jacking prices up immediately when spot goes up and it benefits you. Either price it transparently or stop advertising “over spot” like it means something.

This was easily one of the worst coin shop experiences I’ve had. I asked specifically for bullion silver coins and was shown a beaten up Maple coin priced at spot + $20, which is far above normal market pricing. When I pointed out that I can purchase similar silver from my bank at spot + $8, I was told that bank silver is “used,” a claim that does not align with my experience or common understanding.
Every item I looked at carried an excessive premium, including junk silver dollars. Pricing felt misleading and completely out of line with other reputable dealers.
Given this experience, the high overall rating is difficult to understand. I would strongly advise anyone looking for fair, competitive silver pricing to shop elsewhere.

Went in today with my 6 year old son he bought his first silver maple. Staff was super friendly even the security was welcoming as soon as you enter. I brought in collectible coins for them to look at for me. They took their time to explain everything to me. Definitely worth the drive from Georgetown.

I recently visited Bw Coins and had a fantastic experience. The store offers a great selection of coins and collectibles, with something for both serious collectors and casual enthusiasts. The staff were knowledgeable, patient, and happy to answer all my questions. I really appreciated the fair pricing and the quality of the items available.
Whether you're new to coin collecting or a seasoned pro, I highly recommend checking out Bw Coins. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Our Process for Reviewing Diamonds
STEP 01
Bring the Diamond As It Is
Bring the diamond in its current condition. If it is set in a ring, pendant, earring, or bracelet, leave it in the setting. If it is loose, bring it in its box, envelope, or holder.
STEP 02
We Check the Diamond Details
We look at the diamond’s cut, colour, clarity, carat weight, shape, condition, and any visible wear. If you have a certificate, appraisal, receipt, or old paperwork, bring that too.
STEP 03
We Review the Full Piece
If the diamond is part of jewellery, we also check the gold, platinum, or other metal setting separately. This helps us understand both the diamond and the piece it belongs to.
STEP 04
You Decide What Comes Next
We explain what may affect value. You can sell, keep the piece, compare options, or bring other jewellery for review. If you choose to sell, we make a fair offer based on what we find.

What to Bring With Your Diamond
Please bring the diamond the way it is now. If it is in a ring, pendant, earring, bracelet, or another jewellery piece, leave it in the setting. You do not need to remove the stone before we look at it.
If you still have a certificate, appraisal, old receipt, box, or estate paperwork, bring that too. Even older papers can help us understand the diamond better, especially if they mention carat weight, colour, clarity, cut, or where the piece came from.
Other Items That May Need a Separate Review
Gold coins may carry both metal value and collector value. If your group includes Canadian gold coins, world gold coins, Royal Canadian Mint pieces, commemorative coins, or bullion gold coins, we can review them separately from silver coins.
Silver coins may carry both metal value and collector value. If you have Silver Maple Leafs, Canadian silver dollars, older silver coins, 1 oz silver coins, or mixed silver coin groups, we review them separately from gold coins.
Paper money and banknotes have different value factors, including issue year, denomination, condition, serial number, grading, rarity, and collector demand.
Gold bars are reviewed differently from gold coins. Weight, purity, brand, assay card, serial number, packaging, and current market factors usually matter most.
Old Canadian bills may carry face value, collector value, or both. If you have older $1, $2, $25, $500, or $1,000 Canadian bills, we help you understand what may affect value before you redeem or sell them.
If your silver coins are part of a larger album, estate box, mixed coin group, Royal Canadian Mint set, or inherited collection, it may be better to review the full collection together rather than separate pieces too quickly.
