<p style="font:12px sans-serif"><a href="https://goldpricesarabia.com/en/argentina/gold-price/21k">Source: Gold Prices Arabia</a></p>What 21K gold actually is
87.5% pure · 21/24 · hallmarked 87521K is 87.5% gold, stamped 875, and it is the Middle East's own standard — uncommon in Europe or America, dominant from Cairo to Kuwait. The extra alloy over 22K buys enough hardness for daily wear while keeping the warm yellow that reads as gold rather than as pale metal.
It is the karat most Arab jewellers quote first, and the one most likely to be in the window with a per-gram price on a card. If you are comparing shops in this region, comparing their 21K gram price is the closest thing to a like-for-like test, because nearly all of them carry it.
Because it is the regional default, it also has the deepest resale market here: a 21K piece sold back in Amman, Riyadh or Cairo is priced against a number the shop quotes every morning, with no need to convert from a standard the local trade does not use.
The dominant retail karat in Argentina is 18K, so 21K is usually a deliberate choice here — bought for what it does better, not because it is what the shop happened to have.

Today's Range & Spread
XAU/ARSArgentina gold market
Argentina's retail gold market centres on 18K gold (75% pure), quoted locally per gram in ARS. Prices here are converted from the dollar price at the day's ARS/USD rate, so they move with that exchange rate as well as with gold. Argentines have long saved in US dollars rather than gold, though gold buying has grown, and local buy-sell spreads on gold can be wide.

- Where do I buy 21K gold in Argentina?
- Gold is sold in Argentina at local gold souks and licensed goldsmiths. Always check the hallmark stamp to confirm karat, and obtain a documented receipt. The spot price shown here is your reference for evaluating the shop's price before making charges.
