9K is the entry point for hallmarked gold in the UK, Ireland, and much of the Commonwealth. Affordable and tough, it dominates high-street jewelry — everyday chains, charms, and gift pieces — where a lower price matters more than maximum gold content.
Hallmarked “375” for 37.5% purity, 9K holds the least gold of the karats sold here, so its melt value is roughly a third of the 24K price. It remains genuine, durable gold, with a lighter tone than 14K or 18K.
9 karat gold is 37.5% pure (hallmarked “375”), the lowest purity that can be called gold in the UK. The rest is alloyed metal for strength.
9K is durable and budget-friendly and remains genuine gold, though its lower gold content means less intrinsic metal value and a paler colour than higher karats.
Multiply the 24K spot price by 0.375, since 9K gold is 37.5% pure.
