How to Read 24K, 22K, 18K and 14K Prices
For a sound comparison, match purity, weight, product type, delivery method and buyback terms.
The reference price describes the metal value, not necessarily the final checkout price for bullion bars, Maple Leaf coins and jewelry.
Before you buy: ask for the full price, exact weight, purity and any charges that are included in the final quotation.
Reviewing several saved readings can provide more context than relying on a single intraday price.
