What Services Are Available at Larsen's for McLaughlin Customers?
Everything you'd expect from a full-service pawn shop and jewelry store — plus jewelry repair, Black Hills Gold, and silver bullion buying and selling, which aren't available anywhere else in the region.
💵 Pawn Loans
Collateral-based cash loans with no credit check. Bring jewelry, tools, electronics, coins, musical instruments, or sporting gear — if it has value, you can get cash the same day without selling it. Your item is held safely and returned when the loan is repaid.
🥇 Cash for Gold & Sell Jewelry
We buy gold jewelry, class rings, estate pieces, broken jewelry, and inherited collections. Everything is tested and weighed in front of you — no surprise numbers. Gold is near $4,800/oz right now, so pieces you haven't thought about in years may be worth more than you'd expect.
🥈 Silver Bullion & Coins
We buy and sell silver rounds, bars, pre-1965 US silver coins, junk silver, American Eagles, and sterling silver jewelry and flatware. If you have old coins, a coin collection, or inherited silver pieces, bring them in or text photos first. Call ahead if you're looking to buy — inventory changes.
💍 Jewelry Repair & Ring Sizing
Ring sizing, stone replacement, chain repair, clasp replacement, and cleaning. Larsen's is the only jewelry repair shop within approximately 90 miles of McLaughlin. Text photos of the issue first and we'll give you a read before you make the drive — especially useful if it's a ring sizing or a broken clasp question.

Larsen's is the only place in Mobridge — and the only option within 90 miles — to shop and special order authentic Black Hills Gold jewelry. The iconic South Dakota tri-color leaf and grape design in rings, earrings, pendants, necklaces, and bracelets. Carried since 1941.
🔧 What We Pawn
Beyond jewelry — tools and power equipment, electronics, gaming consoles, musical instruments, fishing and hunting gear, coins, and bullion are all commonly evaluated for pawn loans. Text photos first for electronics and tools.
Making the Drive from McLaughlin Worth It
Twenty miles is a real drive, especially in winter or when you're not sure what you're going to get. Here's how to make sure it's always worth the trip before you leave McLaughlin.

- Bring a valid photo ID. Required by South Dakota law for all pawn and gold transactions. Driver's license or state ID.
- Call ahead for inventory if you're buying silver or Black Hills Gold. Inventory changes — (605) 845-3759 takes 30 seconds and saves the trip if we're out of what you want.
