From Oct. 5 to Oct. 9, The Ohio Valley Refinery & Roadshow will be at

the Holiday Inn at 9931 Interstate Commerce Dr. Participants can drop by between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.

The International Collectors Association state $300,000 is expected to be distributed to area residents this coming week for antiquities, collectibles, and gold and silver items. The Ohio Valley Refinery & Roadshow travels across the globe in search of rare and unique items. During this event, local residents will have the exciting opportunity to sit with experts from around the world and sell their items to our collectors.

A few recent residents have sold items to our collectors including a rare gold coin collection purchased for $107,000, a Civil War pistol used during battle for $40,000, and a letter written by George Washington to the doctor of his wife expressing his disdain toward the doctor’s actions regarding the treatment of his wife.

Collectors are very serious about their hobby and will pay a lot of money for the items they are looking for. Nearly all coins and paper currency, vintage jewelry, war memorabilia, musical instruments and toys made prior to 1965 are highly sought after by collectors. The Ohio Valley Refinery & Roadshow is a place where anyone in your community can connect with collectors from around the globe.

The Ohio Valley Refinery & Roadshow has its own refinery and will also be looking to buy all types of gold, silver, and platinum. With the price of gold continuing to rise, people are cashing in their old jewelry and scrap gold to make a few extra dollars in this tough economy. Refineries typically do not do business with the public; rather, they deal with precious metal accumulators like jewelry stores, pawn shops, dentist offices or industrial facilities that trade with some form of precious metal. All local area businesses that deal with precious metals are encouraged to call ahead and make an appointment with one of our representatives. There are no appointments needed for the general public to sell their items.

During the event residents will have a once in a lifetime opportunity to speak with experts from around the globe and not only find out what their items are worth, but sell them right on the spot. There has never been a better opportunity for local residents to raid their attics, closets and even jewelry boxes to pull out their old junk and sell it to real life collectors and experts.

Don’t be shy in your treasure hunt, this is a free event and you can bring in unlimited items! For additional information call 217-726-7590
