Ideal for rings, bracelets, earrings, and necklaces, sterling silver offers both affordability and style, making it a popular choice for everyday wear as well as special occasions. With proper care, sterling silver jewelry can retain its luster and charm for years to come.

Constitutional
Silver

Constitutional silver, often referred to as "junk silver," consists of U.S. coins minted before 1965 that contain 90% silver. These coins—including dimes, quarters, half dollars, and dollars—are valued for their silver content and historical significance rather than their face value. Due to their silver purity, they are popular among collectors and investors as an affordable and tangible way to own precious metals.
