Read any gold chart as 14k per gram
Every gold chart you will find is drawn in dollars per troy ounce of fine gold. 14k is a fixed 58.33% of that by weight, so the conversion never changes no matter what the market does. Find the spot level on the chart you are looking at, and read across.
| Spot gold per troy oz | 14k melt per gram | What a buyer pays |
|---|---|---|
| $3,000 | $56.26 | $39.38 to $47.82 |
| $3,250 | $60.95 | $42.66 to $51.81 |
| $3,500 | $65.64 | $45.95 to $55.79 |
| $3,750 | $70.33 | $49.23 to $59.78 |
| $4,000 | $75.01 | $52.51 to $63.76 |
| $4,250 | $79.70 | $55.79 to $67.75 |
| $4,500 | $84.39 | $59.07 to $71.73 |
| $4,750 | $89.08 | $62.36 to $75.72 |
| $5,000 | $93.77 | $65.64 to $79.70 |
The payout column is 70 to 85% of melt, the range a reputable gold buyer works in. A pawn shop pays less. None of these are predictions; each row is simply what a gram of 14k is worth if spot happens to sit at that level.
How this data is recorded
Once each New York business day, after the close, a scheduled job reads the spot gold price from the Gold API feed and stores it with the feed's own timestamp. Recording began on 14 August 2026. Every point is a reading this site took: nothing is back-filled, estimated or bought in.
Each reading is filed under the business day it was taken for, in New York time. The job is set for 21:30 UTC but sometimes starts hours late, so a reading taken before 06:00 New York time counts toward the previous day. Weekends are left out, because spot gold does not trade from Friday evening to Sunday evening.
There is no reading for 28 August 2026, 31 August 2026, 21 September 2026, 25 September 2026, 2 October 2026, 13 October 2026. Those days are left empty rather than filled in.
Download every close as CSV. The columns are the date, spot gold in US dollars per troy ounce, 14k gold in US dollars per gram, and the time the reading was observed (UTC). The file updates with each new close.

What actually moves the price
Gold is priced in dollars, so it moves on real interest rates, on the strength of the dollar, and on how much investors want a store of value they cannot print. When real rates fall, holding a metal that pays no interest costs less, and the price tends to rise.
Central bank buying has been the other large factor of recent years. Jewellery demand, despite being the largest single use of gold, moves the price far less than financial demand does.
Reading a gold chart without fooling yourself
Gold charts are almost always drawn in nominal dollars, which flatters the long run. Adjusted for inflation the picture is less dramatic, and the 1980 peak stood unbeaten in real terms for decades.
Log scales are worth preferring for anything longer than a few years. On a linear chart every recent move looks enormous and every historic one looks flat, which is an artefact of the axis rather than anything about gold.
For someone selling a ring, none of this matters much. What matters is the price this week against the price last month, and whether you can wait.
Why the price you get lags the price you see
Spot is a wholesale price for large lots of refined metal. Your ring is neither, so the quote you are given is spot minus refining, assay and margin, and it moves with spot rather than equalling it.
The practical consequence is that a rising market does not reach a scrap counter instantly. Buyers who have already quoted a lot, or who mark their rates weekly rather than hourly, will be behind. On a fast moving day it is worth asking when their rate was last set.
Common questions
Does the 14k price move differently from spot gold?
No. 14k is a fixed 58.33% of the fine gold price, so it moves in exact proportion. Any chart of spot gold is a chart of 14k with a different scale.
Is it worth waiting for a better price?
Over weeks, the swing is usually smaller than the difference between two buyers' offers. Getting a second quote is more reliable than timing the market.
Why does your chart only cover a short period?
Because it only shows closes this site recorded itself, one per New York business day since 14 August 2026. Nothing is back-filled or bought in, so the series grows by one point each trading day.
Can I download or cite this data?
Yes. Every close is available as a CSV file from this page, with the date, spot price per troy ounce, 14k price per gram and the time each reading was taken. Cite it as 14k Gold Price Per Gram, "Daily 14k gold closes", with this page's address.
How do I convert a gold chart into 14k per gram?
Divide the spot price per troy ounce by 31.1035 to get fine gold per gram, then multiply by 0.5833. At a spot price of $4,000 that is $75.01 per gram of 14k. The conversion table on this page does it for a range of spot levels.
Why is a buyer quoting below today's spot price?
Spot is a wholesale price for refined metal in large lots. A scrap quote is spot minus refining, assay and margin. Some buyers also set their rate weekly, so on a fast moving day theirs may simply be stale.
