Appraisals – Is It A Real Garcia Bit?

J.M Capriolas is the only place where you can buy a new, authentic Garcia Elko, Nevada bit or spurs. Many companies have taken the original designs of the Garcia family and have used the Garcia name to profit. Unfortunately, these bits or spurs do not have any collectability value. Our book, Legacy of Silver and Saddles, also outlines the history from G.S. Garcia to J.M. Capriola.

J.M. Capriolas is happy to offer appraisals of your gear. The best method for all appraisals is to send over detailed photography and images of the makers mark stamps. Any verbal or written history that goes along with the item is also valuable. Due to the increase in demand for appraisals and the time involved JM Capriolas now charges a minimal fee for the appraisal of your item.

Please email photos and inquiry to susanwright@capriolas.com. She will get in touch with you for the appraisal fee and will have the information back to you in a reasonable time frame.

Prices start at $25 and can go up to $50 depending on an individual piece, or number of pieces.
