Silver–Gold Ratio Today
The reverse view: how much gold one ounce of silver buys. This page is written for silver holders — converting a silver holding into its gold equivalent — using the same verified spot quotes as the gold–silver ratio page, read from the other side.
| Gold spot (XAU) | USD 4,022.10 / oz · quote 2026-10-27T04:27:47Z |
| Silver spot (XAG) | USD 53.83 / oz · quote 2026-10-27T04:27:47Z |
| Gold–silver ratio (XAU ÷ XAG) | 74.71 |
| Silver–gold ratio (XAG ÷ XAU) | 0.0134 |
Source: Live market quote, both quotes fetched in this single request. Formula: ratio = gold price per ounce ÷ silver price per ounce; reverse = silver ÷ gold. Both prices are in USD per troy ounce, so currency cancels out and the ratio is unit-free.
What your silver is worth in gold
Multiply any silver weight by the reverse ratio (0.0134) to get its gold equivalent at current spot. Worked conversion at the current quotes:
| Silver held | Gold equivalent |
|---|---|
| 10 oz silver | 0.1338 oz gold |
| 50 oz silver | 0.6692 oz gold |
| 100 oz silver | 1.3385 oz gold |
| 500 oz silver | 6.6923 oz gold |
| 1,000 oz silver | 13.3846 oz gold |
Example check: 100 oz silver × 0.0134 = 1.34 oz gold. This is a spot-equivalent conversion only — a dealer swap would also carry premiums, spreads and fees, so the metal you actually receive would be less.
Historical ratio chart (futures-derived)
The chart divides the COMEX gold futures close (GC=F) by the COMEX silver futures close (SI=F) on the same date only — dates present in only one series are dropped, so every plotted point is a genuine same-day pair. For 5Y and MAX ranges, weekly closes are used to keep the series readable. This is a futures-derived ratio, not the live spot ratio above.
GC=F / SI=F futures closes, in USD. This is futures data, not spot.

Methodology: same-quote basis
1. One request retrieves the XAU quote and the XAG quote together; the ratio endpoint never combines a gold quote from one request with a silver quote from another. 2. Both quote timestamps are shown above, so a reader can see whether the two quotes are contemporaneous. 3. If either quote is missing, the ratio is shown as unavailable — never estimated. 4. If either quote is stale (last stored quote because the feed was unreachable), the ratio is flagged stale. 5. The historical series is built separately from date-aligned futures closes and is labelled as such wherever it appears.
Endpoints: /wp-json/gu/v1/ratio (spot ratio + futures-derived history) and /wp-json/gu/v1/metals. Full methodology: Data Sources & Methodology.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert silver ounces into gold ounces?
Multiply your silver ounces by the silver–gold ratio (silver price ÷ gold price). At the current quotes that gives the gold equivalent shown in the conversion table above.
Why is the reverse ratio such a small number?
Because one ounce of silver costs far less than one ounce of gold, one silver ounce buys only a small fraction of a gold ounce — currently under two-hundredths of an ounce. That is normal, not an error.
Is this the amount of gold I would receive in a swap?
No. A real swap also involves dealer premiums, bid–ask spreads and fees, so you would receive less gold than the spot-equivalent conversion. This page shows the market-equivalent value only.
