How to read these prices
The numbers above are spot prices — the wholesale market price for immediate delivery of pure, unalloyed metal in standard-size bars or lots. They are the floor price against which every coin, bar, and piece of jewelry you will ever buy or sell is benchmarked.
Retail transactions always include a spread from spot. Bullion coins carry a 2–8% premium above spot, small bars 1–5%, and retail jewelry 2× melt value or more. Scrap-gold buyers, conversely, pay below spot — typically 70–90% of the calculated melt value — to cover refining costs and their margin.
For the story behind the spot price — how LBMA and COMEX set it, what moves it day to day, and why gold pays no yield but tends to outperform during inflation — read our guide to the gold spot price.
