Selling 14K Gold at a Philippine Pawnshop
Pawnshops quote a buying or appraisal rate per gram for each karat, and it is always below melt value. Ask for the rate per gram before they weigh your piece, and compare at least two shops. A rate below 65% of the melt value shown here, about ₱3,022 per gram for 14K, is a low offer. Our pawn shop guide explains how pawn offers are calculated.
How the Peso Gold Price Is Calculated
- 24K spot per gram in USD: $3,883.45 ÷ 31.1035 = $124.86
- 14K per gram in USD: × 0.5833 = $72.83
- 14K per gram in pesos: × 63.84 = ₱4,649
When the peso weakens against the dollar, local gold prices rise even if the world gold price does not move.

Where to Sell Gold in the Philippines
- Pawnshops: the fastest option, with buying rates posted per gram and karat, but usually the lowest payout
- Jewelry stores that buy old gold: often pay more if you trade in toward new jewelry
- Gold buyers in malls and city centers: compete on rates, so ask several for their per-gram price
- Refiners and bullion dealers: pay closest to melt value but may require larger lots
Whichever you choose, have the karat tested in front of you and keep the receipt.
Buying Gold Jewelry in the Philippines: What to Check
Ask the store to write the karat, weight in grams and price per gram on the receipt. Compare the per-gram price with the melt value on this page: the difference is labor and store margin. Check the karat stamp and ask for a buy-back policy, since some stores buy back their own pieces at a better rate.
