Precious metals intelligence

Spot Premium Calculator

Compare a dealer quote with spot so premium, shipping, bid spread, and rough breakeven are visible before you make a decision.

Open dashboard Create alert Track portfolio

What it calculates

Enter spot, ask, bid, ounces, and shipping to estimate premium per ounce, premium percentage, delivered total, and round-trip spread.

Why it matters

A small move in spot can be overwhelmed by product premium, shipping, taxes, payment terms, and the bid you can actually receive.

Best use

Use this as a checklist beside the dashboard price action, then verify final terms directly with the seller or a qualified professional.
