Let’s talk about gold value: how much is your 10K gold worth?
Ten-karat gold is gold with a purity of 41.6%. That means that a piece of 10K gold contains 41.6% pure gold. The rest can be made up of silver, platinum, nickel, palladium, or copper. The color of the gold depends on which other materials are included. Rose gold, for example, includes a very high amount of copper, which is what creates its beautiful rose color. The same is true for pink gold or red gold. But no matter how much copper is included, the amount of pure gold is always 41.6 % when we’re talking about 10K gold. Below you can find a list of current prices for 10K gold.
Current 10K gold price per gram: $32.14
Current 10K gold price per dwt: $49.98
The value of 10K will be indirectly determined on the commodity exchange. The prices for 24K gold are determined on the stock market. 10K gold contains 24K gold. So it makes sense that the price for 10K gold can be calculated based on the price for 24K gold. Let’s look at an example.
You have a necklace that weighs 10 grams of 10K gold. The price and calculation for this necklace is:
10 grams of 10K gold = 4.1 grams of 24K gold = $321.40
10 dwt. of 10K gold = 4.1 dwt of 24K gold = $499.77
If you want to sell your gold, you should always get a precise answer to your question “How much is 10K gold worth?”
At reDollar, we always practice transparency in our business, but unfortunately not all of our competitors work like that. When own 10K gold that you want to sell, whether it’s in the form of jewelry or other pieces, always ask the buyer for the price per gram or dwt. Based on that information, you can start comparing prices to ensure you get the best possible offer for your 10K gold items. The unfortunate truth is that many gold buyers, including jewelers and pawnshops, don’t share their prices with the public. Very often they make up -their prices depending on the situation. But that’s not at all how selling should work. 10K gold has a specific market value. That value minus the buyer’s margin is the payout amount per gram or dwt. The buyer’s margin should never be higher than 10% of the current market value. If you get offers that are far below that, please don’t sell your gold there unless it’s an emergency and you’re desperate. It’s not uncommon for us to hear of 50% margins, but that’s unacceptable. That would mean that if you owned a 10K necklace with a market value of $1,000, unreliable buyers would only offer you $500 for it. A price of $850 -$900 would be good, and you shouldn’t sell below that price under any circumstances. We highly recommend using our gold calculator to determine the value of your gold. Type in the weight of your jewelry and calculate our payout amount. The prices that we offer our clients are very, very good. They are a perfect guideline to use if you want to compare prices of potential buyers. We hope this answers your question of how much 10K gold is worth.
Don’t waste your time with untrustworthy gold buyers. Sell your gold with us and we’ll pay you the highest price – that’s a promise.
Selling with reDollar guarantees a transparent and safe transaction. We don’t ask our clients why they want to sell, how much money they need, or any other unprofessional questions. How much money the client needs is very important, but it should not affect the accurate and objective analysis of the gold item. If you own a piece of 10K jewelry that is worth $2,000, we will offer you 10% below spot value for your gold. If a gold buyer asks how much money you need and you say $1,200, do you think he will offer you $2000? Probably not, because now the buyer is aware of your need. Based on the number you give him, he can calculate your payout amount as well as his margin. Be aware of business practices like this. Don’t answer questions that are unprofessional or irrelevant and could put you at a disadvantage. Just ask for the price per gram of 10K gold and expect an honest and explicit answer.
