The Urban Gold Prospector

The Urban Gold Prospector: How to Make Money Buying Scrap Gold and Silver is a concise yet powerful book describing how anyone can make money buying and selling scrap gold and silver. The author spent over ten years as a recreational gold prospector in New Mexico before applying his precious metal knowledge to making money in an urban setting. He made more money on his first deal, (which took about two hours), than he did on all the gold he found in ten years of recreational panning. This book describes the techniques used to find prospects, value their metals, test the metals, make an offer, and sell the acquisitions. The information provided in The Urban Gold Prospector, while concise, contains the instructions and methodologies necessary for anyone to begin to value, acquire and sell scrap gold, silver and platinum. Those who work as jewelers or pawnbrokers probably won't find anything new, however, those who do not have knowledge or experience buying and selling scrap gold and silver will find the information eye-opening, practical and profitable.
