What is my dental scrap worth?

I am a dentist and have some old gold crowns that I have recently taken out of patients mouths. At what point does it become profitable to sent them in for refining. Do I need to have 20-30 crowns before it makes sense? — Dr. Norton

Value of 14K Gold Ring

I have a 14 karat gold ring that weighs 0.3 ounces on my postage scale. Can you tell me what the value of gold in this ring is and what I should expect to get for it from a refiner? – Bob in Columbia, MO
