- Weight. Read it on the bar or coin, or use a precise scale.
- Unit. Gram (g), tola (11.6638 g), troy ounce (31.1035 g) or kilo.

|---|---|---|

| 999 | 24K, 99.9% | Some cast bars, TT bars |

Why a buyer’s offer may differ
The calculator shows the value of the gold itself. A buyer’s offer is based on that value, adjusted for:
- Confirmed purity. Testing may show a slightly different fineness.
- Brand and condition. Sealed bars from known refiners need less checking.
- Buying margin. It covers testing, handling and resale.
