How to Calculate Scrap Gold Value
Whether you already know your gold's exact specs or need assistance, follow these three simple steps:
Identify the Purity (Karat / Hallmark)
Check your jewelry for a tiny stamp or hallmark (like 10k, 14k, 585, or 750) and select the matching karat from our dropdown menu.
Can't read the tiny text or not sure what it means? Simply upload a clear photo of the stamp. Our AI Photo Appraiser will automatically detect the hallmark and select the correct purity for you.
Weigh Your Item
Use a digital jewelry scale to weigh your item. Enter the exact weight in grams (g), pennyweight (dwt), or troy ounces (oz t) for the most accurate calculation.
Don't have a scale? Upload a full photo of your jewelry (like a ring or chain). Our AI visual model will recognize the item type and provide a rough weight range and an estimated value. Note: Physical weighing is always recommended for final transactions.
Get Your Instant Melt Value
Once the purity and weight are set, our engine instantly multiplies your item's pure gold content by today's live global spot price. You get an accurate, real-time estimate of your gold's worth—no hidden fees, no math required.
