# Sell Gold and Jewellery in Mougins

## Sell gold and jewellery *in Mougins*

Between Cannes and Sophia Antipolis, Maison Or & Bijoux Mougins, at **1198 avenue de Font Roubert**, values and buys gold, jewellery, coins, silverware and watches. Many of our clients live on the Riviera all year round or for part of it, and come to us after an inheritance, before a move, or simply to find out what their pieces are worth. Here is how it works, in English.

Maison Or & Bijoux was founded by Bertrand Mathieu, who has been passionate about gold, coin collecting and the trade in precious metals for more than 25 years.

#### Before you come

Valuations are **free** and carry no obligation. Purchases are paid **by bank transfer or cheque, never in cash**. Please bring **valid ID**. After signing, you have **48 hours to change your mind**, except for investment gold.

 

## How it *works*

1

#### Walk in

No appointment needed during opening hours. For large quantities or an estate, call us first.

 

2

#### Testing in front of you

We test the purity on a touchstone and weigh your items on a certified scale.

 

3

#### Written offer

**Weight × purity × today's price**, minus our margin, which we state before any agreement. No obligation to accept.

 

4

#### Contract & payment

If you accept, you sign a written sales contract. Payment by bank transfer or cheque – never in cash.

 

 

## What we *buy*

##### Gold jewellery & scrap gold

Rings, wedding bands, chains, bracelets, pendants, earrings – even broken or single pieces. 9 ct to 24 ct.

 

##### Gold coins

Sovereigns, French 20 francs (Napoléon), Swiss Vreneli, Krugerrands, Maple Leafs, Philharmonics and collector coins.

 

##### Gold bars

From 1 gram to 1 kilogram, with or without certificate.

 

##### Silver

Cutlery, silverware, jewellery, coins and bars.

 

##### Watches

Watches from well-known makers, with or without box and papers.

 

##### Diamonds

Diamond jewellery. We work with gemmologists to assess the stones.

 

 

### Estates and large collections

For an estate, a coin collection or a full set of silverware, call us to book an appointment. We take the time to examine every piece and give you a detailed written offer.

### Sovereigns and French coins

Sovereigns and the French 20 francs (6.45 g, 900/1000 gold), usually called a "Napoléon", are the gold coins we see most often. Some dates carry a collector premium on top of the gold value. Please do not clean coins before the valuation.

## Selling gold in France: *what to know*

### No cash

French law only allows dealers to pay private sellers for precious metals by bank transfer or cheque, whatever the amount (Article L112-6 of the Monetary and Financial Code). We pay by SEPA transfer, including instant transfer, to any European account; please bring your IBAN. For non-SEPA accounts, ask us before your visit.

### ID

A valid passport or national ID card is required: every purchase is recorded with the seller's details.

### 48-hour cooling-off period

You can cancel the sale within 48 hours of signing (Article L224-99 of the Consumer Code): you return the amount received and get your items back. Payment can still be made straight away. This does not apply to **investment gold** – bars and most bullion coins such as sovereigns or the 20 francs Napoléon.

### French tax

A French flat-rate tax on precious metals may apply. Sales of up to €5,000 are exempt. Above that, we withhold the tax and pay it to the French tax authorities, so you have nothing to declare in France. The amount appears on your written offer before you sign. For tax in your country of residence, ask your own adviser.

### Travelling with gold

If you carry cash or equivalent assets worth €10,000 or more when entering or leaving the EU – gold bars and coins can count – you must declare them to customs. Check the rules of your home country before you travel.

## Buying gold *and silver*

We also sell investment gold and silver (bars and coins) and jewellery, priced on the day's rate. In France, cash is accepted for purchases up to €1,000; above that, payment must be cashless.
