Gold calculator
What is your gold worth?
Estimate theoretical spot / melt value by weight, purity, and currency. It is not a dealer quote, retail price, or scrap buyer offer.
Based on 24K purity, MetalpriceAPI spot data, and Frankfurter reference rates reference rates. Formula: weight × spot value × purity factor. Actual dealer, jewellery, or buyback prices vary.
Market context
Gold, crypto, and oil at a glance
Separate sources, separate status
Bitcoin is a market reference. WTI and Brent are daily benchmark prices when EIA data is configured. None of these cards is a trading signal or investment advice.
Method
Spot value, made understandable.
Gold Spot Now starts with a server-side XAU spot reference, expresses it in troy ounces, and converts it to grams and kilograms using 31.1034768 grams per troy ounce. The calculator applies a transparent purity factor such as 22/24 or 18/24. Source, timestamp, and freshness stay next to the number.
Important
Reference, not a quote.
Results are theoretical spot / melt value estimates. They do not include dealer spreads, jewellery premiums, taxes, assay fees, refining costs, or a scrap buyer’s offer. Gold Spot Now provides information only, not investment advice.

Plain answers
Gold price questions
What is the gold price today?
The number at the top is the latest valid XAU spot reference returned by the configured primary or fallback provider, shown in USD per troy ounce and labeled with its source and timestamp.
How much is gold per gram?
Divide the USD per troy ounce value by 31.1034768. The calculator then applies the selected currency and purity.
What is a troy ounce?
A troy ounce is the standard precious-metals weight unit. It is about 31.1034768 grams, not the 28.3495 grams of a standard avoirdupois ounce.
What does melt value mean?
Melt value is a theoretical estimate based on metal content and spot price. It is not a guaranteed retail, dealer, or buyback price.
