About Larsen’s Jewelry & Half Interest Pawn

A small-town pawn and jewelry shop rooted in Mobridge, South Dakota — helping people since July 10, 1941 with honest service, fair offers, and real help when it’s needed most.

Over the years, many things in the world have changed, but our core focus has not: listen first, explain clearly, and do right by the people who walk through our door. This page shares a little more about where Larsen’s came from, what we do today, and how we try to treat everyone who trusts us with their time, money, or valuables.

A Mobridge Shop Since 1941

Larsen’s Jewelry first opened its doors in Mobridge on July 10, 1941, serving neighbors with fine jewelry, gifts, and everyday repairs. Over the decades, the shop has changed with the times, but the heart of the business has stayed the same: treat people right and stand behind what you do.

As the community’s needs grew, so did the services. Pawn and financial help were added to give folks a safe, local place to turn when they needed quick cash without judgment or pressure. That’s how today’s Larsen’s Jewelry & Half Interest Pawn came to be — a combination of trusted jewelry shop and small-town pawn service under one roof.

Through the years, Larsen’s has seen engagement rings picked out, heirlooms repaired, tools and electronics pawned in a pinch, and gold turned into extra breathing room in a tight month. Some families have worked with us for multiple generations, returning when they need repairs, a special gift, or a fair place to ask about selling items they no longer use.

From engagement rings and Black Hills Gold to tools and electronics in the pawn cases, the shop continues to be a place where people stop in to talk, ask questions, and find a fair deal.

What We Do Today

Today, Larsen’s Jewelry & Half Interest Pawn is a blend of old-fashioned service and modern options — a place where you can get help with a pawn loan, sell gold, order a special piece of jewelry, or browse Black Hills Gold both in-store and online. We work hard to keep the atmosphere approachable so it feels comfortable to come in whether you’re spending, selling, or just looking for information.

The goal is simple: provide real, practical help for people in Mobridge and the surrounding area. Sometimes that means getting a ring sized, sometimes it means taking out a short-term pawn loan, and sometimes it just means explaining what something is worth so you can make the decision that works best for you and your family.

Small-Town Friendly. Trusted & Honest.

Being in a smaller community means you don’t stay in business long if you don’t treat people fairly. At Larsen’s Jewelry & Half Interest Pawn, we do our best to talk clearly, explain numbers, and give you space to decide what’s right for you.

Whether you’re asking about a pawn loan, selling gold, getting a ring sized, or shopping for something special, you can expect:

  • No-pressure conversations
  • Clear explanations of offers and options
  • Respect for your time and your situation
  • Fair treatment, whether you’re spending or selling

We know that walking into a pawn shop or asking about the value of personal items can feel intimidating. Our goal is to take that stress down a notch — answer questions honestly, show you how we arrived at a number, and let you decide what happens next. Many people stop in just to get information long before they’re ready to commit to anything.
