Gold price history questions

What do open, high, low and close mean?

Open is the year's first daily close; close is its last. High and low are the highest and lowest daily closes, not intraday prices. Change compares close with the previous year's last close. The current year is shown as year to date.

Why does gold price history differ by currency?

Exchange rates affect gold prices expressed in local currencies. As a currency's exchange rate against the US dollar changes, its gold price history can differ from the USD series.

What unit are these gold prices quoted in?

Prices are quoted in US dollars per troy ounce (XAU/USD). One troy ounce is approximately 31.1035 grams.
