Serving Marblehead · North Shore
Estate jewelry deserves better than a mall kiosk.
Sherman Loan Company is about 15 minutes from Marblehead via Route 129 — a family-run counter on the same Lynn corner since 1930. We evaluate estate pieces, gold, watches and coins in front of you, pay 85–90%+ of melt, and treat every visit with discretion.
4 Freeman Square, Lynn MA — Mon–Fri 10am–5pm — Next to the Mosaic Apartments, across from Lynn Community Health Center
Why Marblehead comes to us
Estates & executors
Settling an estate? We evaluate entire lots piece by piece — weight, purity, and price documented for your records — and pay the same day. One trip, a clear accounting, no consignment wait.
Tested in front of you
Every piece is weighed and tested at the counter on a Thermo Scientific Niton XL2 XRF analyzer — exact purity in seconds, no acid, never a scratch. Your jewelry never leaves your sight.
Private & discreet
A quiet counter, not a crowd — and if you'd rather not sell a family piece, a confidential loan against it keeps it yours. No credit check, nothing reported.
About 15 minutes via Route 129 (Lynn Shore Drive if you'd rather take the water) to 4 Freeman Square in downtown Lynn. Call ahead and we'll give you an estimate before you leave — (781) 598-4567.

Common questions
We give purchase offers, not certified appraisal documents — but every evaluation comes with a clear accounting of weight, purity and price per piece, which many families find is exactly what they need to make decisions.
Yes — bring the entire lot. We work through it piece by piece in front of you, separate what's worth more than melt (signed pieces, watches, better stones), and pay the same day.
Then don't — borrow against it instead. A pawn loan keeps ownership with you: four-month renewable ticket, minimum one-month grace period, no credit check, and the piece comes home when you repay.
More answers on our main FAQ — or just call, we're happy to talk it through.
