Police department sells subjects gold teeth for funds.
Quote:

In the market for a set of used grills once worn by a perp? Well, Tennessee cops may have some gold for your cash. The Nashville Police Department is auctioning a confiscated "set of custom made teeth grills," with the proceeds of the sale earmarked for the Police State Drug Fund. As seen in the photos on the following pages, the mouth ornament is adorned with six topaz stones and two citrine stones. The grill is made of 10 karat yellow gold and carries an appraised value of $349. It is unclear in whose mouth the item previously resided, but the jewelry was most recently stored in the Nashville P.D.'s property room, according to a city worker who assured TSG that the grill had been thoroughly cleaned by a jeweler. Prospective bidders can inspect the jewelry--but not try it on--at a municipal warehouse between 8 AM and 3 PM, Monday through Thursday. But hurry, bidding closes in six days. (3 pages)

A few years ago in Jacksonville, FL, a judge was taking jewelry, car keys, leather jackets, ect from dirtbags who didn't pay their child support.

If you use a cash for gold service, you're going it wrong
I'm amazed by the number of people who drop off chains at the downtown shops and get 60-70% of market value. Take it to the scrap dealer! It's ten blocks away! And you get 90% of spot.

I know gold is at an all time high at this moment, and the individual who purchases it may sell it to a gold company. I am sure no individual would purchase a used grill to wear.
Reminds me of the song that goes "Rob the jewelry store and tell em' make me a grill"

We certainly don't sell used grills. We've received quite a few, though.

Wasn't there a European agency in the 1940's that did this quite often?
Sorry, couldn't resist.
