We take accuracy seriously. Every factor is exact by definition, held in one place, and covered by tests. See our methodology. Even so, this is a free reference tool, provided as-is. Some errors would be costly: a trade, a regulated measurement, a medical dose. For those, check against the governing standard and a calibrated instrument.

Precious-metal figures are not valuations

The melt value calculator works out the metal content of an item at a spot price you enter. That number is arithmetic and nothing more. Mass, times purity, divided by the troy ounce, times the price you typed. It is not:

• Not an offer or a quote. We do not buy or sell anything.
• Not what you will be paid. Dealers buy scrap below spot and sell bullion above it. Refining fees, assay costs, and margin all sit in between.
• Not a market price of ours. We publish no price and fetch none. The figure used is the one you supplied, so its accuracy is the accuracy of your source.
• Not financial or investment advice. Nothing here is a recommendation to buy, sell, hold, or value any asset. We publish no forecasts.

Purity matters a great deal, and it is easy to get wrong. Ten grams of 14K gold holds about 5.83 grams of gold, not ten. If you are unsure what an item is, only an assay by a qualified professional will tell you.

Cooking measurements

Ingredient weights come from published density data. They will not match every brand, grind, or humidity. Flour alone varies by up to 20% depending on how the cup is filled. Where accuracy matters, weigh the ingredient.
