Gold and Precious Metal Melt Value Calculator
Pick the metal, weight and purity. The calculator reads the current spot price and shows fine content, melt value and a buyer payout at the percentage you set. If the spot feed is updating it says so and shows no price; you can enter your own spot price instead.
The starting numbers are examples so you can see the math. Replace them with your own.
%Enter the percentage your buyer or refiner quotes.

How it works
- Fine content = weight × pieces × purity. Melt value = fine troy ounces × spot price. Payout = melt value × the percentage you set.
- Spot comes from the shared metals feed used across our gold sites. We never show a price we cannot read; when the feed is older than two hours it shows "Price updating".
Everything is calculated in your browser. What you type is not sent to or stored on our servers.
Notice: Melt value is an estimate from spot price and the purity you enter. It is not an appraisal, a quote or an offer to buy. Dealer and refiner offers vary and may include fees.
