Key events in February 2022

  1. Feb 24Russia invades Ukraine; gold spikes toward $1,970

What happened next

The war drove gold to a near-record in early March before the Fed's first hike turned the tide.

For gold buyers in Iran

February's war-driven spike rewarded existing holders but, as so often with geopolitical rallies, set a short-term top for new buyers.

The 2022 gold market: Russia sanctions and a paradigm shift

Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022. G7/EU froze $300 billion of Russian central-bank reserves — the most consequential monetary event since 1971. Central-bank gold buying hit a record 1,082 tonnes (highest ever). Year close: $1,824 despite Fed's aggressive tightening.

Key drivers in 2022

Russia sanctions, central-bank reserve freezing, Fed hikes to 4.5%, gold's structural role redefined

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 Iran gold market

Iran's traditional gold unit is the mesghal (1 mesghal = 4.6083 g), with bahar-e-azadi gold coins issued by the Central Bank of Iran being a popular savings instrument. Prices are heavily influenced by USD/IRR parallel-market exchange rates rather than the official rate.

How Iran 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 IRR/USD exchange rate comes from exchangerate-api.com's 2022 year-end snapshot.

Conversion. Every IRR figure on this page is computed as XAU/USD price × IRR/USD rate. We use the year-end exchange rate consistently across all February 2022 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 Iran, add the country-specific levies described in the “Irangold market” section above.

How was the local currency price calculated?

IRR prices on this page are computed from the verified international XAU/USD spot price for February 2022 (sourced from gold-api.com), multiplied by the 2022-end IRR/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 IRR at the 2022-end exchange rate. Iran'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.
