Selling your gold in Mons: the buying counters of the Borinage, or the refinery directly
In Mons, as throughout the Borinage, selling your gold most often means going to a jeweller or a buying counter which then resells the metal to a refinery, after valuing it at a flat rate per carat. Gold & Silver Company, in Dottignies (Mouscron), is the refinery itself, open to private clients: a Belgian smelter-refinery of precious metals, approved by the Royal Mint of Belgium and holding the status of approved assayer, with laboratory, melting and refining under one roof. The buyback price is published every day, per gram and per carat, and it is net: nothing is added, nothing is deducted. From Mons, Jemappes, Quaregnon, Frameries, Saint-Ghislain or La Louvière, the process is identical.
Coming to the refinery from Mons, or shipping
From Mons, allow about an hour via the E42 towards Tournai, then the N50 towards Mouscron, with free parking on site and no appointment needed during opening hours; your items are weighed and analysed before your eyes and the offer is made to you immediately. Many of our clients from Mons prefer registered mail with declared value, after a call to +32 56 33 19 96: analysis in the laboratory, offer within 24 hours, return of your items if you decline.
How your gold is valued
The metal is analysed on site and valued at its real fineness, that is its exact fine gold content, at the day's rate, rather than at a flat rate. The appraisal is free, immediate and without any obligation to sell.
How you are paid
Payment is made by bank transfer, a traceable and secure means, within five working days of your agreement; at the office, up to 500 euros may be paid in cash, the ceiling set by Belgian law for the purchase of precious metals. For a private individual who sells gold occasionally, the sale falls in principle within the normal management of private assets; specific situations are detailed on our page gold taxation in Belgium.
