The calculator converts your weight into grams, multiplies it by the live silver spot price per gram, then adjusts for the selected purity. Sterling silver marked 925 contains approximately 92.5% silver by weight. Actual resale offers can be lower than the calculated metal value.
Silver is usually quoted as a spot price per troy ounce. There are approximately 31.1034768 grams in one troy ounce. Convert the spot price to a per-gram figure, multiply it by the item's weight in grams, and multiply again by the silver purity as a decimal. For example, 925 sterling silver uses a purity factor of 0.925. The result is an estimate of the silver content, not a guaranteed resale offer.
A 999 mark indicates approximately 99.9% silver and is often used for fine silver bullion. 925 sterling silver contains 92.5% silver, with the balance usually made up of other metals for durability. 900 silver contains 90% silver, while 800 silver contains 80%. Hallmarks are useful clues, but an item may need professional testing if its authenticity or value is uncertain.
Precious metals are commonly measured in troy ounces rather than ordinary ounces. One troy ounce is approximately 31.1035 grams. A kilogram contains 1,000 grams. A tola is commonly treated as approximately 11.6638 grams, although local conventions and market practices should be confirmed before a transaction.
