Because gold is such a valuable precious metal, there is always a market in which you can sell your gold in any form, whether as gold coins and bullion, gold jewelry, scrap gold, or other gold objects. If you have gold jewelry or coins that you are hoping to sell, it is beneficial for you to know how much your gold might be worth before you try to sell it. This will help you gauge whether you are getting a fair price for your gold and help you avoid gold buyers that may try to take advantage of you.
Determining the exact price of your gold items can be tricky because there are factors other than the market price of gold that help determine the value of an object. However, no matter what type of gold objects you have, you can count on them to at least be worth the market value of the gold from which it is made. This guide will help you get an idea of the value of your gold jewelry, coins, and scrap gold before trying to sell these items.
You should start by determining the karat of your gold items for two reasons. The first reason is so that you can separate your items by karat and determine overall value based on the karat number. The second reason is to make sure that your gold jewelry and items are in fact real gold. Here are a couple of basic things to keep in mind when checking your gold items for the karat:
Gold coins are not valued quite the same as gold jewelry. The value of coins is determined by its numismatic value which factors in the quality of the gold as well as other characteristics such as physical condition, age, and rarity. There are several ways you can get an idea of the value of your gold coins:

The gold futures market is one of a number of commodity futures, wherein contracts are entered into, agreeing to buy or sell gold at a certain price at a specified future date. Gold futures are used both as a way for gold producers and market makers to hedge their products against fluctuations in the market, and as a way for speculators to make money off of those same movements in the market.
Gold, actually trades 23 hours a day Sunday through Friday. Most OTC markets overlap each other; there is a one-hour period between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. eastern time where no market is actively trading. However, despite this one hour close, because spot is traded on OTC markets, there are no official opening or closing prices.
The spread is the price difference between the bid and the ask price. Both gold and silver are fairly liquid markets so traders can expect to see a fairly narrow spread in these markets; however, other precious metals may have wider spreads, reflecting a more illiquid marketplace.
Because there is no official closing or opening price for gold or silver, market participants rely on benchmark prices, set during different times of the day by different organizations. These benchmarks are also referred to as fixings.
The London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) is the leading organization that is responsible for maintaining benchmarks for all precious metals. The LBMA Gold Price, the LBMA Silver Price, and the LBMA PGM Price are the widely accepted benchmarks in the precious metals space. Kitco.com also provides a variety of benchmark prices for gold and silver.
For almost 100 years, the main gold benchmark price was set by the London Gold Fix. The price was determined in a closed physical auction among bullion banks. A price is determined after most buy orders matched most sell orders.
The Kitco Gold Index (KGX) is an exclusive feature that calculates the relative worth of one ounce of gold by removing the impact of the value of the U.S. dollar index. The Kitco Gold Index is the price of gold measured not in terms of U.S. Dollars, but rather in terms of the same weighted basket of currencies that determine the US Dollar Index.
The reason gold and silver prices vary widely boils down to one simple fact: rarity. The less supply there is of a metal, the higher the price. Therefore, gold prices tend to be much higher than silver prices because it is much harder to get. The reason supply is much larger for silver is because it is an easier metal to mine and it is often mined as a by-product to other metals mining. The average occurrence of gold in igneous rock is 0.004 parts per million. Silver shows up at a rate of 0.07 parts per million.
The gold-to-silver ratio shows you how many ounces of silver it would take to buy an ounce of gold. If the ratio is at 60 to 1, this means it would take 60 ounces of silver to buy one ounce of gold.
Gold mining refers to the process of mining gold from the ground. There are several methods to extract gold from the ground including placer mining, panning, sluicing, dredging, hard rock mining and by-product mining. Although it is hard to pinpoint the exact date of when gold mining originated, some findings indicate it could date back to at least 7000 years ago.
Based in London, the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) is an international trade association, which represents the precious metals markets including gold, silver, platinum and palladium. It is not an exchange. Its current members include 140 companies made up of refiners, fabricator, traders, etc. The LBMA is responsible for setting the benchmark prices for gold and silver as well as for the PGMs. For the refining industry, the LBMA is also responsible for publishing the Good Delivery List, which is widely recognized as the benchmark standard for the quality of gold and silver bars around the world.
The metal (gold, silver, platinum, etc.) and gems (diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, etc.) are valued as raw materials based on current market rates. So, gold jewelry value, in this context, is largely determined by the current spot price of gold. Intrinsic value can be viewed as the recycle value of jewelry. Imagine the jewelry as a pile of metal and gemstones, not as a whole piece of jewelry. Some other names for intrinsic value are: cash value, cash wholesale value, and scrap value.
Another big point of confusion with jewelry values is that the value of a used piece of jewelry can be dramatically different from what it cost new. The cost of a new jewelry item includes the intrinsic value and (like resale value above) the cost of workmanship which could be 2 to 5 times the value of the gold and gems alone. Even before the work begins, there is the value added by the jewelry designer. This can double the cost of the finished jewelry, or it can have a negligible impact.
Hi Robin, that sounds like a cool chain! I would have to see it in person to give you an exact value, but a rough estimate is you have around $400-$450 USD of scrap gold at intrinsic value (this will vary based on the gold market). As you know from the article, the retail value will be influenced by numerous other factors beyond just the intrinsic value.
Hi! Your website is very helpful, thank you. I am wondering about the ballpark cost of resetting diamonds from a tennis bracelet into a ring? Assuming it is a custom-designed ring, that will use new 18k gold and contain a band of approximately 30 small diamonds, could you give me an idea of the average cost? Thank you!
That said, 5 carats is equal to 1 gram. So, if you know or can estimate the carat weight of your gems you can approximate the gold weight without them. Then the problem becomes calculating the intrinsic value of the gems which is a bit more complicated than the space here would allow for. If you are in the Sacramento area, you can always stop by our shop and talk with one of our gemologists about the value of your jewelry.
I have a ring that was appraised in 2003 that was worth $3,000 at the time. Wondering what it would be worth today? Ladies 18K (stamped) yellow gold mounting set with 24 princess cut diamonds weighting 1.25 ct total weight. Diamond quality, VS1 clarity, F-G Color (4.00 dwt.). Any idea?
I have a watch that I bought in 1984 that is 14k gold watch and band that I paid $500+. I only wore it once about 30 yrs ago. How much is it worth now? The band is a nugget look that was popular than about 1/4 inch wide. from marshal Fields in Chicago.
Hi, I wonder how much my diamond engagement ring is worth if I sell it to retailers. We bought this in 1988. On the center is a round, brilliant-cut diamond weighing 0.55 carat set in a 24K gold band. On the sides, there are 2 small round brilliant-cut diamonds set one on each side weighing about 0.10 carat each.I would greatly appreciate any estimate on the cash value.Thank you.
I have an 18kt yellow gold 11 diamond engagement ring. The 10 side diamonds weigh 0.25 carats total. They are H color, brilliant cut and VS quality. The center diamond measures 11mm x 6.5mm and weighs approximately 1.39 carats. It is I color, marquise cut and SI1 quality. We would like to turn it into a new ring. What could we expect as to its value? 2ff7e9595c
