About each permit
Precious Metals Dealer License
A store that buys precious metals in Erie County, Pennsylvania, such as a jewelry buyer or gold-buying counter, applies for an annual license as a dealer in precious metals to the Office of the Sheriff of Erie County.

The county form reproduces 37 Pa. Code §501.3, under which application is made to the sheriff of each county in which the dealer purchases precious metals, and §501.5, which reads: "The annual license fee is $50 payable at the time application". The fee is $50 per year, as set by 37 Pa. Code §501.5.
