Weight in grams × karat purity = value
How it works
The table begins with the cached live 24K spot value, then multiplies it by standard karat purity decimals to produce current price estimates for lower-karat gold.
Each karat row shows the value in grams, pennyweight, and troy ounces so that buyers and sellers can compare whichever unit their scale or quote uses.
The chart uses recent history stored by the price cron job. That makes the page more useful than a static table because you can see whether the market has been strengthening or weakening over the last month.
The mini calculator under the chart is there for quick checks. Enter a weight, choose a karat, and you instantly get an estimated USD value.
Formula
Karat price per gram = 24K price per gram × (Karat ÷ 24)
Example calculation
- If 24K gold is $104.51 per gram
- 14K price per gram = 104.51 × (14 ÷ 24)
- That gives an estimated 14K price of about $60.96 per gram
- A 7 gram 14K item would be worth about 7 × 60.96 = $426.72 before buyer payout differences

FAQ
Is the gold price per gram the same as jewelry resale price?
No. This page shows estimated metal value by purity. Resale offers can be lower or higher depending on buyer type and the item itself.
Why do 10K and 14K have very different prices per gram?
Because karat measures the share of pure gold. Lower karat gold contains more alloy and less gold by weight.
How often does this page update?
The data cache updates every 10 minutes, and the front-end table refreshes every 5 minutes.
Can I see price per pennyweight too?
Yes. The table includes gram, dwt, and troy ounce columns for each karat.
Does this page show 30-day history?
Yes. A sparkline-style chart uses recent cached history so you can spot short-term trend direction quickly.
