To calculate the price of your gold, first, determine its weight in grams and its purity (measured in karats or fineness). Multiply the weight by the purity percentage to find the pure gold content. Then, check the current market price of gold per gram and multiply it by the pure gold content. For example, if you have 10 grams of 18K gold, and the market price is $50 per gram, your calculation would be: (10 grams 0.75) $50 = $375.
