How this price is worked out. Gold trades in one global market, quoted in US dollars per troy ounce. The Botswana price above is that spot price converted into BWP at the current exchange rate, then scaled to the weight and purity shown — no estimate is involved at any step. What it does not include is the jeweller's making charge, wastage, or local taxes, which vary shop to shop. Use it as the metal value, not as a shop quote. Historical rows are converted at today's exchange rate, so they show how the metal moved rather than how the BWP moved.
