Gold Value Record High

Economies and cash have been declining in recent times all over the world. From debt crisis’s to miss managing money, several of the world’s top economic countries are having trouble keeping their finances in check. All this however has a significantly different impact on the value of gold. The value of gold has continued to increase during these economically drastic times, and as of today the value of gold has now reached a new record high of $1,489.10 an ounce. As speculation on the future of cash and monies from different parts of the globe start to change, the value of the most purest form of currency, gold, still holds its value.

From Bloomberg:

“Gold rose to a record in New York on speculation that the sovereign-debt crisis in Europe will worsen, boosting the appeal of the precious metal as an alternative to currencies. Silver touched a 31-year high.

Gold reached an all-time high of $1,489.10 an ounce after Moody’s cut Ireland’s credit rating by two levels to the lowest investment grade, eroding the value of the euro. The dollar, while up today, is headed for a third straight weekly decline against a basket of currencies as the U.S. Congress debates measures to reduce a record government deficit.”

Fun Facts

The gold that is universally known and loved has been around for centuries. And over time, a lot of fun facts have come to light on the composition, history, and usage of the world’s most valued metal. Here are some fun facts about gold:

1. The Gold Leaf…Gold as food!?- The Gold Leaf is a flake or dust of gold that is used on and in some gourmet foods most notably in sweets and drinks as an extreme decorative ingredient. These Gold Flakes were used by nobles in Medieval Europe as a decoration in food and drinks to show their wealth.

2. The Gold Liquor- There is a traditional German herbal liqueur called “Danziger Goldwasser” that contains Gold Leaf. It is still made and sold today.

3. The Earliest known Map- the earliest known map to have ever been discovered is called the “Turin Papyrus Map” and dates to around 1160 BC. This map shows the plans of a gold mine.

In ancient Egypt, it was said by king Tushratta that gold was “more plentiful than dirt”.

Gold ATM

The first ATM machine was made and installed in the late 1960s. In the past 50 years, there have been many changes in finance, products, and economy, that have led to ATMs becoming more powerful, even creating and accepting deposits from all over the world. But now, a company called GOLD To Go is bent on bringing the ATM back to its most bare of services. GOLD to Go has been developing and installing Gold to Go machines, or as they are popularly known: “The Gold ATM”.

The Gold ATM accepts both cash and card payments, and even provides change. After payment is accepted, you receive your gold in a GOLD to Go box, along with a receipt for your purchase.
Is having a machine of this caliber a good idea? The Gold ATM dispenses a minimum of a 1 ounce gold bars. The price of gold sometimes reaches up to a thousand dollars and up per ounce. The more serious and heavier bars would run into the 20,000+ mark. How many would you seriously trust a gold-style vending machine with as much money as the price of a vehicle? Do you think the Gold ATM is just another bad idea…or is it the world’s next spending trend?

What's A Karat?

Many people own gold that is 18k, or even 24k gold. But knowing how much your gold is worth comes in knowing what the “k” in your gold really stands for. The “k” that is usually found at the end of a number describing jewelry’s that contain precious metals stands for the word “karat”. The word Karat stands for the purity of the gold inside your jewelry. Pure gold happens to be the softest metal in the world, and thus not very ideal for most jewelry. Jewelry that is commonly found for sale and used by many people is jewelry that contains gold but is also combined with other metals and alloys for stability. That is why your Karat amount is important, because it is used to determine how much of your jewelry has been combined with alloys and how much is actually pure gold.

A lot of starting line gold is measured in 10k, while the highest end of gold is 24k. As you can see by the chart, a piece of jewelry that is 10k gold is about 41.67% gold, then the rest is various combinations of other alloys. However, a piece that is 24k gold is 99.95% pure gold, that is why these pieces are generally the highest in value!

We hope this chart has helped with useful insights on how you can learn more about your gold. And remember, just because your jewelry is broken or unwanted, doesn’t mean they still don’t have value.
