Spot Price to Gram Conversion
Precious metals are traded globally in troy ounces. One troy ounce equals 31.1035 grams. We convert the spot price to a per-gram price, then apply our transparent spread to arrive at the posted price.
Current Example (Reference Rates):
Gold Spot: $5,275.00/oz
÷ 31.1035 grams
= $169.60/gram (spot)
Silver Spot: $113.50/oz
÷ 31.1035 grams
= $3.65/gram (spot)
