Gold prices remained largely stable in Iraqi local markets on Saturday, June 13, 2026, as global gold prices also showed little movement.
According to market data, the international price of gold stood at around $4,218 per ounce. In Iraq, gold prices varied depending on purity levels, with a mithqal of 21-karat gold selling for approximately 922,000 Iraqi dinars.
Other gold prices included around 790,000 dinars for 18-karat gold, 965,000 dinars for 22-karat gold, and approximately 1.054 million dinars for 24-karat gold.
In local markets, selling prices were reported at about 154,600 Iraqi dinars in Erbil and 154,850 Iraqi dinars in Baghdad.
The current stability reflects a period of relative calm in both global and local gold markets. Traders and investors continue to monitor international price movements, as well as supply and demand conditions within Iraq, for any signs of future changes.
Gold remains one of the most closely watched investment assets in Iraq, particularly during periods of economic uncertainty, as many investors view it as a traditional store of value and a hedge against market volatility.
