Global Gold Ounce Retreats From Thursday's Morning High as Tehran's Domestic Rates Hold Steady

The global gold ounce, which reached $4,633 on the morning of Thursday, Shahrivar 5, 1405 (August 27, 2026), pulled back by midday. According to Donya-e-Eqtesad, published at 11:14 the same day, the ounce fell $23 to $4,597. Tgju.org recorded it at $4,607.90 at the same hour, and Alanchand.com put it at $4,598.06; all three readings show a retreat from the morning's level.

Domestic gold and coin rates, however, barely moved: Tehran's gold mesghal stood at about 93,749,000 tomans at 11:39 on Sahmino's own price feed, almost unchanged from the morning's 93,680,000 tomans, and the Emami coin held near 214,000,000 tomans. The reason was a matching dip in the free market dollar rate, which Donya-e-Eqtesad put at 200,360 tomans, still reflecting the central bank's banknote supply operation that has been holding back the dollar rate since Tuesday.
