Regarding the need for a license to purchase scrap gold in California, visit The California Department of Consumer Affairs web page here: Calif Second Hand Dealer License.

Basically, starting a “legal” cash for gold business in California requires you to visit your local city hall and simply ask if a license is necessary.

Many California cities have zero licensing requirements! 

If YOU really want to dig into this, simply do a search on CraigsList and sell a small piece to a buyer who offers to share their licensing information with you. You could visit a “California Cash for Gold” store as well and accomplish the same thing.

None of this is magic! Common sense is typically the smartest approach to figuring out licensing requirements; IF ANY!
