Gold Price Per Kilo

The chart above shows the gold price per kilogram in British Pounds for the past week.

If you want to see historic kilo prices for gold you can click on the 1 year, 5 year or 20 year charts and even zoom in to a particular time period. Troy ounce UK prices are displayed on the right-hand axis. It is also simple to switch between gold, silver and platinum prices.

These gold charts can help answer some of the most common questions relating to the price of gold:

  • How much is 1 kg of gold worth? See the live red line above
  • What was the highest ever price per kilo of gold? £38,417 per kg
  • When was a kilogram of gold at its highest price? 6 September 2011

You can also use the current gold price per kg to work out the cost of an entire Good Delivery bar, the professional gold industry’s wholesale unit. It weighs 400 Troy ounces or around 12.4 kg.

Your metal is held in one of these Good Delivery bars when you buy gold using BullionVault. Trade from 1 gram to 1 kilo of gold or more at live spot gold prices. Your gold is already safely stored and insured inside a professional bullion vault. This is why, using the internet's largest gold market, the price you pay per kilo, ounce or gram of gold is very much cheaper than buying gold coins or smaller gold bars.

Even if you choose a 'retail investment' unit like a gold kilobar, it will carry extra manufacturing, shipping, handling and marketing costs compared to the wholesale form of large Good Delivery bars. You don't need to pay those extra costs to own gold. Using BullionVault, you can buy and sell right at the live kg prices displayed above. You can also set your own gold price per kilo, and wait to catch a dip or sell on a spike.
