Photograph the bar or coin so the weight, fineness, and refiner mark are readable. Confirm whether it is 1 oz, 1 g, or another weight before we look up a range. The same applies to silver bars and coins.
Example · 10 Nov 2026
Valcambi Suisse 1 oz 999.9 gold bar
Worth about $4,075 melt · 1 oz listings $4,346.09 and $4,391.31
The current gold price for this bar’s weight on 10 November 2026 is $4,075 (0.999 oz at $4,079 / oz). We use that as a floor. Two 1 oz listings the same day were $4,346.09 (bar with assay) and $4,391.31 (1 oz Combibar with assay) — not enough to set a tight listed range. The same search also mixed 1-gram and 50-gram bars, from about $146 up to about $7,364, so confirm the weight on the bar. Sources: current gold price and Google Shopping listings.
How to photograph a gold bar
Bullion tracks the current metal price plus a small dealer premium. A 1 gram bar and a 1 oz bar can appear in the same shopping results, so the weight on the bar is the detail that matters most. We use the current gold or silver price for that weight as a floor, and we also look at public listings. Confirm the weight on the bar.
What you will see
After you confirm the identification, we show a Worth about figure, a listed range, a way to adjust for condition, a confidence level, and comparable public listings when we find enough of them. If we cannot find enough listings, we say so instead of inventing a single number.
