What does this price mean?

This is a reference value for the metal, calculated from the global gold benchmark in US dollars. It is not a buy or sell quote from an Iraqi jeweller and excludes making charges, fees and the shop’s margin.

How we calculate it

Divide the troy-ounce price by 31.1034768 to obtain the pure-gold value per gram, then multiply by karat ÷ 24. For dinars, apply the official USD reference observed at the Central Bank of Iraq. Each source has its own timestamp.

USD/oz ÷ 31.1034768 × karat/24 × IQD/USD

Before buying or selling

Ask for net weight, purity, metal price and making charges separately. Compare like-for-like weights and karats, and ask about the buyback price. Your seller may use a dollar conversion different from the official reference used here.
