Pinehurst Coins strives to make buying precious metals straightforward, easy, and reliable. Our website updates every 60 seconds to reflect the current market value of precious metals, and your order total is locked in upon submission. This process ensures a fair, accurate, and transparent transaction. Our customers can select from various payment methods when placing an order.
Please refer to the information below to find an outline of the order process and details for each method of payment:
We accept payments using Visa, MasterCard, and Discover credit/debit cards. Ensuring our customers are protected is vitally important. As such, we kindly ask that you allow up to 24 hours for our fraud team to review and approve all orders.
To place a credit/debit card order, simply add products to your shopping cart, select “Credit Card” as your payment method, and click “Proceed to Checkout.” If you do not have an account, you may choose to proceed as a guest, allowing you the opportunity to create an account at the end of the checkout process. Existing account holders will be prompted to provide their account’s email address and password to proceed to checkout. You will be asked to enter standard information, including your name, phone number, email, and billing/shipping address. Please be advised that all credit card orders must be shipped to the billing address your financial institution has on file. This ensures that our customers are protected. As previously noted, we manually approve most credit/debit card orders, and this process is usually completed within 24 business hours. Once the status of your order has moved to “processing,” it will be prepared for shipment, and you will receive an email notification.
Paper checks, money orders, and cashier’s check orders all have the same order process and offer the greatest opportunity to receive the best price available. To place an order, simply add products to your shopping cart, select “Check/Wire Payment” as your payment method, and click “Proceed to Checkout.” If you do not have an account, you may choose to proceed as a guest, allowing you the opportunity to create an account at the end of the checkout process.

Please note that as part of our fraud protection procedure, your billing address must match the one your financial institution has on file.
Pinehurst Coins requires 10% of the order total to be secured with a credit/debit card to guard against any market loss if you cancel your order or return your payment. During the checkout process, you will only have the option to enter a billing address. Once payment has been received and cleared, this 10% authorization will be canceled and not charged to your credit/debit card. Pinehurst Coins does not accept convenience or credit card checks at this time.
All checks should be made payable to Pinehurst Coins. Please write the order number in the check memo line and include a copy of your invoice along with payment. All checks must be dated within 24 hours of placing your order and received by Pinehurst Coins within 10 business days. Orders in which the payment is not received within the noted 10 business days may be canceled at the discretion of Pinehurst Coins. Cancellation fees and any market loss will be billed and captured to the credit card provided at checkout. Any payments returned by our bank will also be assessed a $40.00 return payment fee.
100% of the order total should be sent in via check, money order, or cashier’s check to:
Pinehurst Coins
5 Trotter Hills Circle
Pinehurst, NC 28374
Please remember that all paper checks, whether personal checks, cashier’s checks, or money orders, require 10 business days to clear before entering the shipping queue. Unfortunately, we do receive fraudulent money orders and personal and cashier’s checks, and this process is imperative to ensure that the issuing bank cannot cancel or reverse the funds and prevent fraud. According to our bank’s policy, this is most often a 7 to 10-day delay. During this time, your order status will be “On Hold Clearing.” Once your order has moved to the status “Processing,” we will prepare your purchase for shipment, and an email notification will be sent.
Please be advised that paying with a credit card is the fastest payment method if you need your order to be processed as quickly as possible.
Paying by bank wire offers our customers the greatest opportunity to receive the best price available. To place a bank wire order, simply add products to your shopping cart, select “Check/Wire Payment” as your payment method, and click “Proceed to Checkout .” If you do not have an account, you may choose to proceed as a guest, allowing you the opportunity to create an account at the end of the checkout process.
