Gold Coin Price in Pakistan by Weight
The gold coin price in Pakistan is the coin’s pure gold weight × the 24K rate, plus the seller’s premium. Today’s 24K Sarafa rate is Rs434,536 per tola (Rs37,255 per gram), announced on 21 October 2026.
| Coin weight (24K) | Gold value | Typical premium | Estimated shop price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 gram | Rs37,255 | ~6% | Rs39,490 |
| 2 grams | Rs74,510 | ~4% | Rs77,491 |
| 2.5 grams | Rs93,138 | ~4% | Rs96,863 |

Premiums are typical ranges and vary by seller, packaging and stock. Small coins carry the highest premium because minting costs are spread over very little gold.
Sovereign, Krugerrand and Maple Leaf Price in Pakistani Rupees
Internationally traded bullion coins state their pure (fine) gold content. A 22K coin such as the Krugerrand weighs more than an ounce in total, because the copper alloy is added on top of a full ounce of gold. Here is each coin’s gold value at today’s Pakistani 24K rate:
| Coin | Total weight | Purity | Pure gold | Gold value today |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| British Sovereign | 7.98 g | 22K (916.7) | 7.32 g | Rs272,707 |
| Half Sovereign | 3.99 g | 22K (916.7) | 3.66 g | Rs136,354 |
| South African Krugerrand (1 oz) | 33.93 g | 22K (916.7) | 31.10 g | Rs1,158,763 |
| American Gold Eagle (1 oz) | 33.93 g | 22K (916.7) | 31.10 g | Rs1,158,763 |
| Canadian Maple Leaf (1 oz) | 31.10 g | 24K (999.9) | 31.10 g | Rs1,158,763 |
| Austrian Philharmonic (1 oz) | 31.10 g | 24K (999.9) | 31.10 g | Rs1,158,763 |
| British Britannia (1 oz) | 31.10 g | 24K (999.9) | 31.10 g | Rs1,158,763 |
| Maple Leaf (1/10 oz) | 3.11 g | 24K (999.9) | 3.11 g | Rs115,876 |
These coins are not minted in Pakistan. Most arrive with travellers from the Gulf and the UK, so local availability is limited and dealers may add a higher premium. Collectible or dated coins can sell above gold value.
Why Gold Coins Cost More Than the Sarafa Rate
| Cost in the price | What it covers | Effect on a small coin |
|---|---|---|
| Gold value | Pure gold weight × the day’s 24K rate | The main part of the price |
| Minting | Striking the design, edge and finish | Same cost whatever the weight, so higher per gram |
| Packaging and certificate | Sealed card, serial number and assay certificate | Adds a fixed amount |
| Dealer margin | The seller’s profit and stock risk | Usually a percentage |
Example: a 1 gram coin with a 6% premium costs about Rs39,490, while 10 one-gram coins cost about Rs394,904, compared with Rs387,453 for a single 10 gram coin.
Gold Coins as Gifts: Weddings, Aqiqah and Eid
Small gold coins are a popular gift in Pakistan because their value is clear and they can be kept or sold without loss to making charges. Common choices:

| Graduation or retirement | Half tola or 1 tola coin | Rs217,268 – Rs434,536 |
Gold Coin vs Gold Bar: Which Should You Buy?
| Gold coin | Gold bar (biscuit) | |
|---|---|---|
| Premium over gold value | Higher, about 2% – 6% | Lower, about 1% – 3% |
| Sizes | Mostly 1 g to 1 oz | 1 g up to 10 tola and 1 kg |
| Best for | Gifts and small, regular savings | Larger savings at the lowest cost per gram |

How to Check a Gold Coin Before You Buy
- Check the stamped purity (999, 999.9 or 916.7) and weight on the coin or its card.
- Weigh it: a 1 tola coin should read about 11.66 g and a 1 oz bullion coin about 31.10 g (24K) or 33.93 g (22K).
- Compare the diameter and thickness with the official specification; fakes are often the right weight but the wrong size.
- Keep coins in their sealed card or capsule; scratches can lower the resale price.
- Ask for a receipt with the seller’s name, the weight and the purity.
