Ridge Coin & Gold Exchange
Gold or silver, diamonds or coins; whether you're buying or selling, the experts at Ridge Coin have you covered. In 1972, Michael Omeluch opened Ridge Coin & Stamp with $100, some miscellaneous coins-and a dream. What began as an unassuming presence next to a bowling alley on Ridge Road soon became the premier coin, gold, and jewelry exchange in the Rochester area.

We now carry on that legacy and reputation for excellence, operating exclusively out of our new Henrietta location. Ridge Coin & Jewelry Exchange is the most established coin and gold exchange in the region. Our staff has a combined 50 years' experience in the precious metals industry; literally millions of dollars' worth of coins has passed through our collective hands and we have a firm grasp on fluctuating market values.
Services
Even though the price of gold has dropped from its 2011 highs, it's still extremely valuable and a great way to get some extra cash. Throughout the boom, and still today, Ridge Coin has been paying more than our competitors for all gold you have. That means the highest percentage of the intrinsic value out there.
Silver has been used in many ways, from coins and bars to jewelry and flatware. It exists in many different forms, and we buy them all! Maybe you have an old silverware set that isn't important to you and isn't being used, or a few silver coins in your dresser. Whatever it might be, if you no longer have a use for your silver valuables, turning them into cash could be a great idea.
Diamonds are often purchased for big events or passed down as family heirlooms and are the source of great sentimental value. But what should you do when you have diamonds or diamond jewelry which are no longer special to you? Selling diamonds on the second-hand market can be challenging, but also well worth it if you have an unwanted diamond of high quality.
Most high-end watch and jewelry stores either sell your watch on consignment for a huge commission (up to 40%) or jus list it for sale on your behalf. This process can take weeks or months to complete and leave you with only a fraction of the value of your jewelry. That's not how it works at Ridge Coin.
Most of the silver and gold coins we buy end up being more valuable for their content than the face value or collectible value of the coin. However, that isn't always the case. Our team knows how to identify potential valuable coins, research their rarity, and establish a fair value based on those factors and condition.

Nice antique store but way don’t they have any 2021 silver coins to buy? Told us to buy them online, they said this never happened before but how come we can buy them online and they can’t? Disappointed.

After cleaning out our parents house we brought over an array of silver and silver plate and Mike was very helpful in getting everything sorted out, tested and weighed. He was very knowledgeable and patient, explaining the difference between the U.S. and European markings. All that and a fair price! Highly recommend.

Worked with Mike twice now- he has been very kind and patient while sorting through my late mom’s jewelry and advised me what I might want to possibly sell and what I might want to hold onto for sentimental reasons only. He has been very kind and I feel very comfortable going to him!

I had some bits and pieces of odd jewelry I no longer wear and am in general purge mode. This was great place to take it!

I cleaned out my jewelry box yesterday and found some old broken necklaces, pendants I didn’t care about, single earrings, etc. Decided to just see what I could sell it for and went to Ridge Coin and Gold. I was thinking maybe $50-75. I couldn’t believe when he offered me $200! Perfect way to start my weekend! Super clean and professional environment. Mike couldn’t have been nicer!

Like everyone says, get more than one estimate. I'm sure glad I did. My first estimatevalued my collection at $1900. Ridge coin paid me $3,300! Not only that, the gentleman I dealt with was friendly and courteous. Thanks!! I have already recommend them to a friend.
