The United States gold market
The US retail gold market quotes per troy ounce for bullion and per pennyweight or gram for jewellery. 14K is the most common jewellery purity.

How this July 17, 2018 United States price is calculated
International benchmark. The XAU/USD spot price for July 17, 2018 comes from gold-api.com's historical archive — the London PM-fix benchmark, which is the reference used by central banks and bullion dealers globally. On this date, that price was $1,232.80/oz.
Currency conversion. The USD/USD exchange rate for the same date comes from exchangerate-api.com. We apply that day's exact rate (—) to the USD price — not a year-average or month-end approximation. This makes the $ figure on this page accurate to the trading session.
Per-unit math. Per-gram = per-ounce ÷ 31.1035. Per-tola = per-gram × 11.664. Per-10g = per-gram × 10. Per-kilo = per-gram × 1000. Karat values multiply per-gram by the purity ratio (24K = 0.999, 22K = 0.916, 21K = 0.875, 18K = 0.750, 14K = 0.585, 10K = 0.417). We never compound rounding errors by going through intermediate units.
What this page does NOT include. Local sales tax / VAT, customs duty on imports, dealer making charges, jewellery design premiums, or coin numismatic premiums. To go from this pure-metal value to a final retail rate in United States, add the country-specific levies described in the “United States gold market” section above. The retail rate at a jeweller in United States on July 17, 2018 would have been a few percent above this number once those costs are included.
