For gold buyers in Colombia
September's orderly pullback offered re-entry for buyers who missed the summer surge, without signalling the bull market was over.
The 2020 gold market: COVID crash, recovery, and the all-time high above $2,000
March 2020 saw a brief gold sell-off during COVID liquidity panic (-12% in 2 weeks) before the metal rocketed to an all-time high of $2,075 in August. Year close: $1,898 — gold's best year since 2010.
Key drivers in 2020

Era context — The modern bull market (2019 to today)
Gold's second major bull market of the 21st century. Driven by COVID stimulus, Russia sanctions, central-bank accumulation at record levels, and the structural shift toward a multi-polar reserve system. New all-time highs reached repeatedly since 2020.
The Colombia gold market
Colombia retail gold prices are quoted in the local currency per gram for 24K and 22K purities, and per troy ounce for investment-grade bullion. Local rates usually sit above the international XAU/USD spot price after import duties, sales taxes, and jewellery making charges are applied. Use this archive as the international reference price; final retail rates depend on your dealer and the date's exchange rate.

How Colombia gold prices are calculated on this page
Source. The international XAU/USD spot price comes from gold-api.com's historical archive (London PM-fix benchmark). The COP/USD exchange rate comes from exchangerate-api.com's 2020 year-end snapshot.
Conversion. Every COP figure on this page is computed as XAU/USD price × COP/USD rate. We use the year-end exchange rate consistently across all September 2020 prices on this page.
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).
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 Colombia, add the country-specific levies described in the “Colombiagold market” section above.

How was the local currency price calculated?
COP prices on this page are computed from the verified international XAU/USD spot price for September 2020 (sourced from gold-api.com), multiplied by the 2020-end COP/USD exchange rate from exchangerate-api.com. We use year-end rates as a single reference point for the entire month — for most stable currencies the within-year FX drift is small, but during currency crises (PKR 2022–23, TRY 2022, ARS 2024 etc.) the actual mid-month rate may differ.
Why does the retail price in shops differ from this number?
The $ figures here represent the international gold spot price converted to COP at the 2020-end exchange rate. Colombia's retail jewellers add (1) import duties and sales tax (varies by SKU and karat), (2) dealer making charges (typically 3–12% of metal value), and (3) a small premium for purity certification on bars. Always verify the exact day's retail rate with a reputable local dealer before transacting.
