Precious Metals Calc

The Precious Metals Calculator has functions to compute the price a Jeweler can reasonably pay for items for their value in Gold, Platinum, Palladium and Silver.

• Precious Metal Buy Price: Computes the Jeweler's Buy Price for several types of precious metals based on the current value of a precious metal, the metal's purity, a scrap processing fee, and the jeweler's profit margin.
• Gold Buy Price: Computes the Jeweler's Buy Price for gold based on the current value of gold, the karat purity, a scrap processing fee, and the jeweler's profit margin.
• Platinum Buy Price: Computes the Jeweler's Buy Price for platinum based on the current value of platinum, the percent purity, a scrap processing fee, and the jeweler's profit margin.
• Palladium Buy Price: Computes the Jeweler's Buy Price for palladium based on the current value of palladium, the percent purity, a scrap processing fee, and the jeweler's profit margin.
• Silver Buy Price: Computes the Jeweler's Buy Price for silver based on the current value of silver, the percent purity, a scrap processing fee, and the jeweler's profit margin.
• Junk Silver Value: Computes the current value for Junk Silver based on the dollar Face Value and the current Silver Spot Price in U.S. dollars.
• Clad Silver Value: Computes the current value for U.S. silver half dollars with dates between 1965 to 1970, based on the dollar Face Value, a Clad Silver factor and the current Silver Spot Price.
