Gold Investment Calculator

Calculate the current value and the profit or loss of gold you own from its weight, the price you paid, and the buyback price per gram.

About Gold Investment Calculator

This calculator measures the result of holding physical gold. Cost = weight in grams × purchase price per gram; current value = weight × the buyback price a dealer pays today; profit or loss = current value − cost, also shown as a percentage of cost. Dealers buy back below their selling price, so use the buyback quote and not the retail price. Storage, insurance, and taxes are not included. Not investment advice.

  2. The result appears below and updates as you type.
  3. Copy the result with the copy button, or download it as a file where that is offered.

Questions about Gold Investment Calculator

Why is the buyback price lower than the selling price?

Dealers keep a spread between what they charge and what they pay to cover minting, handling, and their margin. Gold must rise by more than that spread before a sale shows a profit.

How do I convert a price per troy ounce to a price per gram?

Divide the price per troy ounce by 31.1035, the number of grams in one troy ounce. A price of 3,110.35 per ounce is 100 per gram.
