What it's worth when you sell
99.9% gold. Since 2016 Pandas are sized in grams, not troy ounces: the old 1 oz coin became 30 g, which is about 0.9645 troy oz, slightly less than an ounce. Pre-2016 coins are in troy ounce sizes.
Bullion coins sell at a premium over melt value (smaller sizes carry bigger premiums) and dealers buy them back at or a little under the spot value of their gold.
