Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most important questions about gold prices, buybacks, and taxes in Germany.

How much is 1 gram of gold worth right now?
The current price for 1 gram of fine gold (999/24K) is displayed live at the top of this page. The value changes continuously during trading hours, based on the international spot price converted to euros at the ECB reference rate.
Why is the buy-back price lower than the gold price?
The buy-back price is typically 3–7% below the spot price. This discount covers the dealer's smelting, testing, and trading costs. The spot price is a wholesale market price, not a guaranteed payout.
What do I get for 585 gold (14 karat)?
585 gold contains 58.5% pure gold. Multiply the current fine gold price per gram by 0.585 to get the pure gold value. The actual buy-back price is then typically 90–97% of that value, depending on the dealer. Use our gold calculator for a precise estimate.
When is selling gold tax-free?
In Germany, physical investment gold can be sold tax-free after a holding period of one year (speculation period). For sales within this period, a tax-free allowance of €1,000 profit per year has applied since 2024. If the profit is below this threshold, no tax is due.
