Gram, ounce, tola or kilo: see the live price in the unit you use.
Gold is priced in different units around the world, and the same price can look very different depending on the unit. The international benchmark is the troy ounce. Jewellers in most countries quote per gram. In South Asia the tola is traditional, and other markets use the baht, the tael, the mithqal and more. Our pages let you switch units with one tap, and the pages below show each unit directly.
The gram is the base unit for most retail gold outside North America. A gram of 24K gold is the spot price per troy ounce divided by 31.1035, converted to your currency. See the gold price per gram.
The troy ounce, 31.1035 grams, is the international trading unit. It is not the same as the ordinary ounce used for food, which weighs about 28.35 grams. See the gold price per ounce.
The tola, about 11.6638 grams, is used in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Nepal and by many Gulf jewellers serving South Asian customers. See the gold price per tola.
A kilogram is 1,000 grams, or about 32.15 troy ounces. Bars of this size are traded by refiners, banks and bullion dealers. See the gold price per kilo.
The mithqal, about 4.25 grams, is used in parts of the Middle East. The Thai baht weight is about 15.244 grams, and the Hong Kong tael is about 37.4 grams. In Vietnam the chi is 3.75 grams and the luong is 37.5 grams. Our gold units guide has a conversion table, and the gold unit converter converts any amount between them.
Most pages open on grams, because that is what local jewellers use. The pages that open on a different unit are: India (10g), Pakistan (tola), Bangladesh (tola), Nepal (tola), South Africa (oz), Hong Kong (tola), Australia (oz), United States (oz), Canada (oz), New Zealand (oz), Mexico (oz).
Prices on these pages are the live spot-based value of the gold in your currency, without making charges, tax or dealer margin.
