Note: These are melt values based on the pure gold content. Jewelry, coins, and bars typically sell above melt value due to premiums for manufacturing, design, numismatic value, and dealer markup. Always verify current buy/sell prices with dealers before transacting.
One gram of pure 24k gold is worth 1/31.1035 of the spot price per troy ounce. For 14k or 18k gold, multiply by the karat purity percentage.
A troy ounce is 31.1035 grams, used for precious metals. It's about 10% heavier than a standard avoirdupois ounce (28.35 grams).
Divide the spot price per troy ounce by 31.1035 to get the price per gram of pure 24k gold. For lower karats, multiply by the purity fraction.
18k gold is 75% pure (18/24), while 14k is 58.3% pure (14/24). 18k gold per gram costs about 29% more than 14k.
No. Dealers add premiums above melt value for fabrication, handling, and profit. Premiums vary by product type, quantity, and market conditions.
