How the purities differ
The karat number is a purity promise. 24K is 99.9 percent pure gold, the metal of bars and coins, quoted at Rs per tola selling today. 22K adds a hardening alloy to reach 91.6 percent gold, the standard of Pakistani jewellery sets, at Rs . 21K (87.5 percent) and 18K (75 percent) appear mostly in imported designs and lighter fashion pieces, quoted at Rs and Rs respectively. Every step down in purity is a step down in metal value, which is exactly why each carries its own counter line.
For saving, 24K bars and coins hold value cleanest, because buyback sits nearest the board rate. For wearing, 22K carries the designs. Mixing the two in one purchase blurs your resale math, so keep purities separate on every bill.
Reading the counter like a trader
- Selling vs buying: the selling column is what you pay; the buying column is what the dealer pays you. The spread is the dealer's ground.
- Making charges: on jewellery, mazdoori sits on top of the metal line and is negotiable in most bazaars.
- Weight honesty: one tola is 11.664 grams, heavier than 10 grams. Always confirm which unit a quote uses.
- Bars carry certificates: sealed gold bars from branded refiners trade back with the tightest spreads.
