Frequently asked questions
What is the current 21K gold price?
This page shows the live 21K gold price per gram in EGP, refreshed every 30 minutes. Data is taken from the local Egyptian market and benchmarked against the global market price (London reference) converted at the live USD/EGP rate.What is the gold purity of 21K?
21K gold is 87.5% pure gold. The remainder is an alloy (copper, silver, zinc) added to harden the metal for everyday use. The higher the karat number, the higher the gold content.Is 21K a good karat for saving in gold?
21K is better suited for everyday wear than for pure savings: its gold content is lower than 22K or 24K. If your goal is savings, 22K or 24K is usually preferred.How is the 21K price calculated relative to 24K?
Theoretical formula: 21K price = 24K price × (87.5% ÷ 99.9%). The actual market price also factors in workmanship and dealer margin. You can compare live prices for every karat on the [gold price page](/en/gold-price).What is the difference between the 21K buy and sell price?
The sell price is what you pay a dealer to buy gold; the buy price is what a dealer pays you to buy gold from you. The spread covers workmanship and dealer margin and is typically 2%–5%.Why does the 21K price change daily?
Three drivers: the global ounce price in USD (London reference), the EGP exchange rate, and the local-market premium. A move in any of the three flows through to the live price.
