Gold Jewellery Value Calculator Bahrain

How to read your result كيف تقرأ النتيجة

Pure gold content is the actual weight of gold inside your jewellery, after stripping out the alloy metals used for hardness or color. A 22K piece is roughly 91.6% gold and 8.4% other metals.

Gross melt value is what the pure gold content is worth at today's spot price — the figure refiners and bullion buyers think in. Net estimated value applies an optional buyer spread you choose, since most jewellery doesn't resell at exactly spot.

Making charges (the labour cost paid when the jewellery was made) are typically not recovered when selling. The calculator deliberately excludes them from the melt-value figure.

Jewellery vs investment-grade bars المجوهرات مقابل سبائك الذهب

For people focused on long-term value preservation, investment-grade bars give you a cleaner picture of what you own — weight × purity × today's price, with no design premium to absorb on resale. Jewellery has its own value as something you wear and pass down; it's not "worse" than bars, it just plays a different role.

Example calculations أمثلة محسوبة

Example 1 — 10g of 22K gold jewellery: 10 × 91.6% = 9.16g pure gold. Multiply by today's 24K price per gram for the melt value.

Example 2 — 25g of 21K gold jewellery: 25 × 87.5% = 21.875g pure gold.

Example 3 — 15g of 18K gold jewellery: 15 × 75% = 11.25g pure gold.

Example 4 — 1 tola of 22K (≈ 11.66g): 11.66 × 91.6% ≈ 10.68g pure gold.

Frequently asked الأسئلة الشائعة

How do I calculate the value of my gold jewellery?

Multiply the jewellery weight by its purity factor (e.g., 0.916 for 22K, 0.875 for 21K, 0.75 for 18K), then multiply the resulting pure gold weight by the current 24K gold price per gram. That gives you the gross melt value.

Is 22K gold worth the same as 24K gold?

No. 22K is about 91.6% pure gold; 24K (999.9) is essentially pure. Same weight, less pure gold, lower melt value.

Why is my jewellery resale value lower than the gold price?

Buyers usually apply a spread to cover refining, testing, and their margin. Stones, solder, and non-gold parts also reduce the deliverable gold weight. Making charges paid originally rarely come back on resale.

Can I convert jewellery value into 999.9 gold bars?

Use this calculator to estimate your jewellery's gold content value, then ask MSS Gold about today's prices for 999.9 investment-grade bars. We sell certified bars from 1 gram up to 10 Tola at live spot prices with free delivery across Bahrain.

What is 21K gold purity?

21K gold is approximately 87.5% pure gold. It's one of the most common jewellery karats in the GCC region, including Bahrain.

What is 18K gold purity?

18K gold is approximately 75% pure gold. Common in luxury and designer jewellery for its durability and richer color.

Does the calculator show guaranteed resale price?

No. It is a melt-value estimate only. Actual resale price depends on karat verification, weight verification, market price on the day, condition, certification, and the buyer's terms.
