Gold Weight Conversion Guide

Whether you are a jeweler weighing a finished piece, a gold buyer evaluating scrap, or an investor comparing bullion listings, converting between grams, troy ounces, pennyweight, and tolas is something you will do daily. This free converter handles all the common precious-metal weight units instantly.

Troy Ounces vs. Regular Ounces

Gold, silver, and platinum are always priced in troy ounces. One troy ounce equals 31.1035 grams — about 10% heavier than a regular (avoirdupois) ounce at 28.3495 grams. Confusing the two can lead to costly mistakes when buying or selling precious metals.

Pennyweight in the Jewelry Trade

Pennyweight (dwt) is the traditional unit used by jewelers and gold buyers in the United States. There are exactly 20 pennyweight in one troy ounce. Because many pawn shops and "cash for gold" stores quote prices per pennyweight, knowing how to convert pennyweight to grams (1 dwt = 1.55517 g) helps you compare offers fairly.

What Is a Tola?

The tola is a traditional unit of weight used across South Asia and the Middle East. One tola equals 11.6638 grams, or exactly 3/8 of a troy ounce. Gold bars and jewelry in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and several Gulf states are commonly sold by the tola. Understanding the tola to gram conversion is essential when comparing international gold prices.
