Quick answer

Most platinum jewelry is 95% platinum, stamped PT950, 950 PLAT, or PLAT; some is 90% (PT900) or 85% (PT850). Palladium jewelry is usually 95% (PD950) or sometimes 50% (PD500). Both are valued by weight × purity × spot price, and they look like white gold — so testing matters.

Platinum vs. white gold

White gold is gold alloyed with white metals and usually plated with rhodium. Platinum and white gold look almost identical, but platinum is heavier and is priced differently. Stamps like 14K or 18K mean white gold; PT or PLAT means platinum. If there’s no stamp, our XRF analyzer tells the difference in seconds.

Platinum and palladium bullion

We buy American Platinum Eagles, Canadian Platinum and Palladium Maple Leafs, American Palladium Eagles, and platinum and palladium bars from recognized refiners.

Other sources of platinum

  • Platinum wedding bands and engagement ring settings
  • Vintage and estate jewelry (platinum was common in early-1900s pieces)
  • Platinum dental work — see dental gold
