What is the platinum spot price?
Platinum is roughly thirty times rarer than gold in the earth’s crust, yet it has traded below gold for most of the past decade because about 40% of demand comes from automotive catalysts and the market is small enough that supply shocks in South Africa dominate the price.
Jewelry platinum is alloyed at 95% or 90% purity (stamped Pt950 or Pt900), so the purity table below converts spot into what a piece is actually worth. Bullion coins such as the American Platinum Eagle are .9995 fine.

Platinum price questions
What is the price of platinum today?
The live spot price per troy ounce is at the top of this page with its change since the last fix and the time it was updated.
Why is platinum cheaper than gold?
Demand is concentrated in car catalysts, which diesel’s decline has reduced, while investment demand is a fraction of gold’s. Rarity alone does not set the price; the balance of supply and demand does.
What do Pt950 and Pt900 mean?
They are purity stamps in parts per thousand: 95% and 90% platinum, the rest usually iridium, ruthenium or cobalt for hardness.
