18 Karat Gold Eases 62,000 Tomans in Tehran as Global Ounce Holds Near $4,355

According to Khabar Online, the price of 18 karat gold in Tehran fell 62,000 tomans from the previous day to 23,339,000 tomans on the morning of Thursday, September 18, 2026 (27 Shahrivar 1405). A mesghal of gold also dropped 272,000 tomans to 101,100,000 tomans, while 24 karat gold fell 84,000 tomans to 31,115,000 tomans.

The domestic decline came even as the global gold price rose 11 dollars from the previous day to trade near 4,355 dollars an ounce at the same hour; Sahmino's own live data put the global ounce at 4,356.65 dollars, up 0.3 percent, as of 7:59am the same day. The divergence between the falling domestic price and the rising global ounce may reflect movement in the reference exchange rate used to price gold in the Tehran market.
