Gold Prices in Egypt Today

- 24-karat gold: EGP 7,177 per gram

- 21-karat gold: EGP 6,275 per gram

- 18-karat gold: EGP 5,373 per gram

21-Karat Gold Price

The price of 21-karat gold remained at EGP 6,275 per gram on Sunday, after falling by EGP 45 during Saturday’s trading from EGP 6,320.

The EGP 6,300-per-gram level remains an important point for the 21-karat gold market. Prices are currently trading below that level amid continued fluctuations and relatively weak momentum in the local market.

24-Karat Gold Price

24-karat gold stood at around EGP 7,177 per gram at the beginning of Sunday’s trading, unchanged from the previous close.

As the highest-purity gold category commonly traded in Egypt, 24-karat gold is also closely linked to the pricing of gold bullion, making it a key reference for investors and savers.

18-Karat Gold Price

18-karat gold remained stable at EGP 5,373 per gram, in line with the stability seen across other gold categories at the start of trading.

The 18-karat category is widely used in certain types of gold jewelry, while the final retail price of jewelry varies depending on workmanship charges and stamp fees.

Gold Pound Price

The price of a gold pound remained at around EGP 50,200, unchanged from Saturday’s closing level.

A gold pound weighs 8 grams of 21-karat gold, meaning its price is directly influenced by movements in the local 21-karat gold price.

Global Gold Market

Markets are closely watching international gold prices at the beginning of the new trading week, as global gold movements remain one of the key factors influencing prices in Egypt, alongside changes in the US dollar exchange rate against the Egyptian pound.

Developments in the US economy, expectations for interest rates and monetary policy also remain among the main drivers of global gold prices, potentially affecting the Egyptian market during the week ahead.
