As of very recent data, gold is trading around 4,200–4,250 US dollars per troy ounce, which works out to roughly 135,000–137,000 US dollars for 1 kilogram at the spot price. Retail 1 kg bars from major dealers are typically a bit higher, around 138,000–140,000 US dollars depending on payment method and quantity.
How the value is calculated
Gold is quoted in troy ounces, and there are about 32.15 troy ounces in 1 kilogram, so the per‑kilo value is the spot price per ounce multiplied by 32.15. Using a spot price in the low 4,200s per ounce gives an approximate spot value in the mid‑130,000s US dollars per kilogram.
Market vs dealer prices
Dealers usually charge a premium over the spot price that can add a few thousand dollars per kilogram for small purchases. Recent dealer quotes for 1 kg bars show check/wire prices about 138,000–140,000 US dollars, with credit card prices several thousand higher.
Key factors that change the price
The exact value changes constantly with global gold markets, interest rate expectations, and demand for safe‑haven assets. For a precise live figure, checking a real‑time gold quote per kilogram (or per ounce and converting) right at the moment of purchase or sale is necessary.
