How the Gold Price Per Gram Is Calculated
Formula: price per gram = spot price per troy ounce ÷ 31.1035 × purity. Purity follows the karat: 24K 99.9%, 22K 91.6%, 18K 75%, 14K 58.5%, 10K 41.7%; sterling silver 92.5%; platinum 950 is 95%[3]. Per pennyweight multiplies the gram price by 1.55517, per troy ounce by 31.1035 and per kilogram by 1,000; every figure is computed from the displayed spot price and rounded once, to the cent (half up).
Source and timing: spot prices for gold, silver and platinum come from metals.dev[1], captured once each US trading day in the late afternoon, Eastern time (after the US settlement); the latest capture was November 5, 2026, 6:56 p.m. ET. Spot is an indicative mid-market price for pure (fine) metal, and each day's figure is a daily snapshot, not an official exchange settlement price. On weekends and US market holidays (NYSE/COMEX closures) the page is not updated and keeps the last trading day's prices and date. Earlier days in the 30-day chart come from the provider's daily historical series.
Melt value vs what you are paid: these are metal values. Fair scrap offers typically run 60% to 95% of melt value[2], and new jewelry costs more than its metal because it also pays for design, making and selling.
