Gold Value is Determined by Karat, Color and Quality

As long as they have the same amount of karats, different types of gold will have the same proportion of pure gold. However, there are variations in tone and color between different karats of the same color gold.

That is to say that while a piece of 18 karat yellow gold jewelry and a piece of 18 karat white gold jewelry both contain the same amount of pure gold, pieces of yellow gold of different karats are not equal. Something that is 18 karat yellow gold and something that is  24 karat yellow gold will not look exactly the same.

For example, 9 karat yellow gold will not appear to be as yellow as 18 karat yellow gold. The 18 karat yellow gold will appear richer in color. For this reason, 18 karat gold is selected more often that 9 karat gold when people purchase engagement rings. Also, 18 karat gold often lasts longer than 9 karat gold. So that is another reason why it is sometimes preferred to 9 karat gold when it comes to selecting rings and other jewelry that people expect to wear often.

In the case of white gold, 9 karat and 18 karat both have a similar color. In general, white gold is more expensive that yellow gold or rose gold. Rose gold and yellow gold usually are priced similarly.

The things that you as a consumer consider when you buy your gold are some of the same things that come under consideration when it is time to sell your gold. Gold that has stood up well to everyday wear will sell at a different price point than gold that has not stood up to the test of time. The color differences between the different types of gold plays a role in pricing as well. And lastly, the amount of pure gold in a piece will also determine its price when it is time to sell.
