How this platinum calculator works

This calculator multiplies your item’s weight by its fineness (like Pt950) and by today’s live platinum price per gram — the same method used to price platinum rings, wedding bands, and bullion.

Frequently asked questions

What does Pt950 mean?

A Pt950 stamp means the item is 95% pure platinum, alloyed with 5% other metals (commonly ruthenium or cobalt) for durability. It's the most common standard for platinum jewelry.

Is platinum worth more than gold?

It depends on current market prices — platinum and gold prices move independently and their relative value shifts over time. Check today's live prices on the Gold Price and Platinum Price pages to compare.

How do you calculate platinum melt value?

Platinum melt value = weight in grams × fineness (as a decimal) × platinum price per gram — the same formula used for gold and silver, just with platinum's purity and spot price.
