Gold Price Per Gram
Gold jewellery and scrap gold are usually estimated by combining weight, purity, and the current gold price. A 24ct item contains more pure gold than 18ct, 14ct, or 9ct gold, so the price per gram differs by purity.

How the Gold Price Is Calculated
International gold is commonly quoted per troy ounce. For South African estimates, the price is often converted into rand and then into a gram value. Jewellery and scrap estimates then adjust that value by gold purity.

How the Gold Price Affects Different Gold Items
Gold price matters across most gold categories, but each item type is assessed differently.
items needs to be verified, weighed, tested, and assessed according to its category.
- Gold purity must be confirmed.
- Weight must be verified accurately.
- Stones, clasps, springs, non-gold parts, or packaging may affect calculation.
- Coins and bars must be authenticated.
- Bullion and collectable items may include different resale considerations.
- Business costs, handling, refining, and market spread can affect final offers.
Why Your Final Gold Offer May Differ From the Live Price
The live gold price is a market reference point, not automatically the final amount paid for every item. Final offers may differ because the item needs to be verified, weighed, tested, and assessed according to its category.
