How to read this historical table
Every price above is derived directly from the international XAU/USD spot rate on this date ($1,775/oz) using fixed weight constants — 1 troy ounce = 31.1035 g, 1 tola = 11.664 g, 1 baht = 15.244 g, 1 lượng = 37.5 g, 1 mesghal = 4.6083 g, and so on. These multipliers are mathematical, not market estimates, so the conversions are exact.
Prices are shown in US dollars only. Historical local-currency gold rates depended on the exchange rate at the time (June 21, 2021 rates for PKR, INR, AED and others were materially different from today). For an accurate same-date local-currency value, see the country-specific archive link below this section when available.
The figures are pure metal value at international parity — they do not include the import duty, VAT/GST, jeweller making charges, or dealer margin that would have applied at retail counters on this date. For wedding-jewellery or coin pricing context, retail in 22K commonly added 5–15% on top of the spot value shown here.

June 2021 gold market: Hawkish Fed 'dot plot' slams gold
BearishA hawkish Fed projection erased the spring rally in days.
Gold dropped sharply in June, from near $1,900 to about $1,770, after the Federal Reserve's updated projections signalled earlier rate hikes than markets expected. The hawkish surprise lifted the dollar and real yields, hitting gold hard.
June's drop is a clean case study in how much the Fed's posture — not just its actions — moves gold. The central bank did not raise rates; it merely revised its 'dot plot' of projected future hikes. That shift was enough to send the dollar and real yields up and gold down over 6% in a few sessions. For inflation hedgers, it was a frustrating message: even with inflation running hot, a credibly hawkish Fed could cap gold by promising to defend price stability.
