Gold Price Per Gram Today in NJ — How Much Is Your Gold Worth?

Before you sell your gold, you want to know what it's worth. The gold price per gram changes every day based on the global spot market — and knowing the current rate is the single most important factor in getting a fair offer.

Gold is traded globally in troy ounces. Here's how to convert to grams:

• 1 troy ounce = 31.1 grams
• If gold is trading at $3,200/troy oz, the gold price per gram = $102.89

Use our live Gold Calculator to see today's exact price per gram and estimate your payout based on your jewelry's weight and karat.

Not all gold is 100% pure. The karat tells you the percentage of gold in your jewelry:

Look for a small stamp on your jewelry — usually inside a ring band, on a clasp, or on the back of a pendant. Common stamps include:

• 10K, 417 — 10 karat gold
• 14K, 585 — 14 karat gold (most common in the US)
• 18K, 750 — 18 karat gold
• 22K, 916 — 22 karat gold
• 24K, 999 — 24 karat (pure gold, usually coins or bullion)

If you can't find a stamp, don't worry — we test every piece with professional equipment to determine the exact karat.

Jewelers often use pennyweights (dwt) instead of grams. Here's the conversion:

• 1 pennyweight (dwt) = 1.555 grams
• At $3,200/oz spot, 14K gold = ~$93.25 per pennyweight

The spot price is the raw melt value of pure gold. When you sell gold jewelry, the buyer pays a percentage of that melt value — typically 70–90% depending on the buyer.

Pawn shops typically pay 40–60% of melt value. Chain stores (like jewelry chains) often pay 50–70%. Rt9 Cash for Gold Buyers consistently pays 80–90% of melt value — among the highest in NJ.

The difference on a $500 melt-value piece:

• Pawn shop: $200–$300
• Chain store: $250–$350
• Rt9: $400–$450

Rt9 Cash for Gold Buyers is located at 960 US Route 9 South, South Amboy NJ, serving Sayreville, Woodbridge, Old Bridge, Perth Amboy, and all of Middlesex County.
