How The Monkey Landed Here

Founded in 2009, Warren Exchange is located right on Main Street in the smallest town in the smallest state! Warren, RI.  Originally opened as a coin and cash for gold shop, we expanded to buy and sell everything, from one marble up to an entire estate.  We have a steady stream of pickers and antique enthusiasts that visit daily, and our inventory is always changing.

That is me!  I have always loved flea markets and buying and selling. So many interesting items have come in and out of this shop, carried by the most fascinating people in the world….if not the UNIVERSE!!! I love this job!

We Buy & Sell Everything but the Monkey!

At Warren Exchange, we stay true to the motto “We buy one marble up to an entire estate” No matter what you bring in, we can give you an appraisal and a cash offer to purchase the item.
It could be your Grandfather’s WWII army knife or your great Aunt Ida’s sewing basket….we have bought and sold everything. Having been in the business since 2009, if we can’t figure it out, we have a built network of experts who we can call to help.

Take a look as some of the items we buy:

Coin Collections & Cash for Gold

Any American* silver coin (Dime, Quarter, and Half Dollar**) before 1964 has a precious metal value, and some have a numismatic value. A Numismatic coin is a coin whose value or price depends more on its date, condition, rarity value, connection to history, aesthetic attraction and mint mark of the coin, than its face value.
Bring in ALL of your coins, we will sort and appraise your collection and make a cash offer.

*Foreign coins can also have a precious metal value. Each country is different. Bring in your foreign coins for an appraisal as well.

**half dollars from 1965-1969 contain 40% silver and also have a precious metal value. We are always buying precious metals.

Cash for Gold & Silver

We have been buying and selling Gold and Silver jewelry in the same brick and mortar location since 2009. Most of our customers are word or mouth, referral, and repeat customers.
Bring in your collection. We will separate and sort your jewelry, test in in front of you, and give you a cash offer.

We buy all jewelry!

Including costume jewelry. Rhode Island was the jewelry making capital of the world, starting in 1890 hitting its peak in 1940s when RI was producing 80% of all costume jewelry nation wide! (My grandparents actually met in the factory line at Coro manufacturing costume jewelry) April’s mother met her Mother In Law picking for Monet.
Bring in your costume jewelry. Although rare, some costume jewelry is worth more than silver or gold.

I had been holding onto some jewelry that was weighing me down. Today I googled who buys gold and silver & found places near me but Warren Exchange seemed little different & more my style, more personal. Tara (the owner) was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable as was the other customer in the store. Tara explained everything she was doing and why she was doing it, performing the metal test in front of me as well as weighing it. I was totally shocked when she gave me price she would pay me for my jewelry. I highly recommend this shop to anyone and everyone! Thank you Tara!Response from the ownerThe fact that you ventured over the bridge is amazing! I hope you packed a lunch 🙉. come back anytime. Jane P.Jane P. ★★★★★ My experience was amazing. Thanks Tara very much, it was so nice working with you, everything was great, got more money than I expectedjs_loader
