Price per ounce over time
The lowest and the median price per troy ounce across all gold offers at our shops, next to the spot price, per day. The difference from spot is the premium. Where the price lines stop, we did not measure those days.
Where this price comes from
One price a day. We read the spot price every morning and then rebuild the site. You won't get a price by the minute here; by the time you read this, the market may have moved.
Our own series. We keep every daily price since 11 September 2026 ourselves (46 days). Before that, the line draws the World Bank's monthly average, dotted.
The spot price is not a shop price, and not advice. It is the market price of fine gold. This page shows a price and predicts nothing.
