Stay up to date with the latest spot prices for gold and silver. Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply tracking the market, Nashville Gold and Coin provides real-time updates and local expertise to help you make informed decisions.

What Are Spot Prices?

The spot price of gold or silver is the current market price for immediate delivery of that metal. The spot price is electronically calculated based on supply and demand data from markets around the world. The London Bullion Market Association or LBMA sets a benchmark price twice a day.

Spot prices are quoted per troy ounce, the standard unit of measurement for precious metals. They change constantly as markets trade around the world.

 

Why Spot Prices Matter

For Sellers:

Knowing spot prices protects you from undervaluing your items and helps you time your buying or selling decisions. Watching the ebbs and flows of the spot price can help you maximize value for your precious metals.

For Buyers:

The spot price will be the basis for establishing the cost of most gold and silver products. A premium is added to the spot price based on the demand for certain items. American Gold and Silver Eagles carry more premium than foreign or private mint bullion.

How Are Gold and Silver Spot Prices Determined?

Spot prices are set by global markets, mainly through:

 

  • COMEX and LBMA – The major exchanges where metals are traded.
  • Global supply and demand – Mining production, recycling rates, and consumer demand for jewelry or industry.
  • Currency values – Since gold is priced in U.S. dollars, changes in the dollar’s strength impact spot prices.
  • Economic and geopolitical factors – Inflation, interest rates, and world events often move precious metals up or down.

Frequently Asked Questions About Live Spot Prices

Why do I see different spot prices on different websites?
Some dealers deliberately alter the spot prices they use to create an illusion of value. Major online retailers are notorious for this practice. As of this writing, one of the top American precious metals exchanges has their gold spot price $20 higher per ounce than Nashville Gold and Coin while silver is $0.25 higher per ounce. This practice makes their premiums (the price above spot they charge for a product) appear lower. We always recommend comparing spot prices in real time to make sure you are being treated with honesty and transparency.
How often do spot prices change?

Spot prices update constantly throughout the trading day — sometimes every few seconds.

Why is my payout different from the spot price?
Spot price reflects raw metal value. Your offer also considers refining costs, purity, and market demand. Dealers in physical precious metals will typically offer to buy precious metals at or a few percentage points below the spot price for premium bullion items like American Gold and Silver Eagles. Foreign bullion items will typically bring a few percentage points below the U.S. Mint products. Generic items or items that are not in good retail condition may be priced 7-12% below the spot price due to lower demand for these items.
Can I lock in today’s spot price when I sell?
Yes. When you bring your items into our Nashville shop, we calculate your payout based on the live spot price at the time of sale.
Do coins and bullion always sell at spot price?
No. Bullion coins often trade close to spot, but numismatic and collectible coins may be worth much more based on rarity, demand, and condition.
