Bada Bing, Bling! That is sick!
 
Wow, just how much does a 1/2 pound of gold go for these days?
 
well.... I wasnt really keeping track of the weight of the junk......... it would have been interesting.... but 60 or so pounds is a good guess... i sold 150 grams of the gold to buy my etrac so far have about 15 hrs on the beach with it. no gold yet..... lots of every thing else......

Hold on a sec...right now a gram of 14k is worth about $24.50 from a refinery.. so if theres 150 grams of 14k then thats about $3675... so if there was some 10k in there that makes around $3000.. So are you saying you go paid around $3000 for a etrac...either you kept some of the extra cash or You got seriously ripped off by selling your gold to those WE BUY GOLD stores.
 
Awesome Pile!
the Etrac will bring it in!
It took me a bit to get accustomed to mine, now i'm amazed at its capabilities :thumbsup:
 
looks like you dumped out a treasure chest :icon_pirat:
 
1 troy ounce (pure gold, 24k) = 31.10 grams

12 ounces in a Troy pound = 373.2 grams

6 ounces is 1/2 pound = 186.6 grams

$45.30 per gram of pure gold (24k), so:
______________________________________________________________________

20 “DWT” (Pennyweight) = 1 troy Ounce (31.10 grams)

One “DWT” = 1.555 grams

1 gram of 24k gold = $45.30 (31.10 grams x $45.30 = the current 24k ("pure") gold price of $1,408.83 per ounce--Full 31.10 grams) ($70.44 for 1 DWT or Pennyweight)


1 gram of 18k gold = $33.97 (31.10 grams x $33.97 = the current 18k gold price of $1,056.46 per ounce--Full 31.10 grams) ($52.82 for 1 DWT or Pennyweight)


1 gram of 14k gold = $26.42 (31.10 grams x $26.42 = the current 14k gold price of $ 821.62 per ounce--Full 31.10 grams) ($41.08 for 1 DWT or Pennyweight)


1 gram of 10k gold = $18.87 (31.10 grams x $18.87 = the current 10k gold price of $ 586.85 per ounce--Full 31.10 grams) ($29.34 for 1 DWT or Pennyweight)
