Send photos of your silver and any hallmarks for a free, no-obligation valuation. We reply within one working day.
Portsmouth is Britain's great naval city, home to the Royal Navy for centuries, and the wealth of its officers, merchants and the comfortable suburbs of Southsea and the surrounding Hampshire coast left a legacy of fine silver in local homes. Presentation pieces, canteens of cutlery, tea services and salvers all feature. If you've inherited any, Mozeris Fine Antiques will value and buy it, with free insured courier from any Portsmouth address and same-day payment.
You don't need to travel. We're a family-run firm of antique and precious-metal specialists, and most of our Portsmouth sellers handle the whole sale from home — we collect by fully-insured, tracked courier at no cost, verify your silver at our office, and pay you the same day. For higher-value collections we also offer by-appointment valuations.
We Buy Silver From Portsmouth and Across the UK
We buy all genuine silver: sterling and Britannia standard, antique and modern, English and continental. That includes tea and coffee services, trays and salvers, fish servers and serving silver, candlesticks and candelabra, canteens of cutlery and individual flatware, christening mugs and presentation pieces, sauce boats, entrée dishes, cigarette and vesta cases, photograph frames and small collectables, plus silver coins and scrap. Naval and regimental presentation silver in particular can carry strong collector interest. Every piece is judged on hallmarks, weight, maker and condition — fine maker silver is worth far more than melt, so never sell good silver as scrap without a specialist opinion.

Why Portsmouth Sellers Choose Mozeris
We pay fairly against the live silver price, with no auction commission, no listing fees and no waiting months for a sale — a firm figure and immediate payment. A specialist antique buyer recognises maker, period, presentation engraving and rarity, which is where the real value of Portsmouth silver often lies, while a high-street "we buy gold" shop will usually pay melt only. Every valuation is free and without obligation.
