Gold calculator
The quarter coins in the drawer, the full coin from the wedding, the bracelet, a 14-karat necklace — what is it all worth today? Enter the counts and grams and the total is computed from live prices.

What would this sum buy?
This is a division, not a shopping list: a jeweller sells above this reference, so the count you would get at the counter is lower than the one here.
Computed values. The quarter, half and full coins are not observed directly; they are computed from the ounce price and the dollar/lira rate with the mint's own fineness and weight. The karat rows (22, 18, 14) price the fine gold inside the gram: 22 karat is 916, 18 karat 750, 14 karat 585 per mille. A jeweller pays less than this and sells for more — the difference is workmanship and spread, and on a bracelet it is wider than on a coin.

Where do the numbers come from?
Gram gold is the ounce price in dollars times the dollar/lira rate. The quarter, half and full coins are computed from it with the mint's own weight and fineness: a quarter is 1.75 grams at 916 fineness, the half and the full coin are two and four times that. So the quarter price here is what the fine gold inside it is worth today.
The karat rows use the same gram price, multiplied by the share of fine gold in the gram: 22 karat 916, 18 karat 750, 14 karat 585 per mille. So a 20-gram 14-karat necklace is 11.7 grams of fine gold.
The jeweller's price is different, and that is normal: workmanship is added when they sell, a spread is deducted when they buy — and on bracelets and jewellery the gap is wider than on coins, because the workmanship is part of the price. This page is a reference for seeing where you stand in that negotiation, not the number a jeweller will quote.
