Karat (K) tells you how much of an item’s weight is actually gold. 24K is essentially pure (≈99.9%). To read any karat as a percentage, divide by 24.

  • 22K → 22/24 = 0.916 (often stamped 916)
  • 18K75.0% (stamp 750)
  • 14K58.5% (stamp 585/583)
  • 10K41.7% (stamp 417)
    Most everyday jewelry is 14K or 10K because pure gold is soft and needs alloying for strength.

Yes, spot price per troy ounce updates automatically. You just provide weight, karat, and currency.

14K gold is 58.3% pure. The calculator automatically converts this to current market value.

18K gold holds 75% pure gold. Input the weight and gold price to see its value.

You can check gold karat using acid tests, hallmark stamps, or electronic testers.
