What is a Troy Ounce? Platinum weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The troy ounce (31.1035 g) is the settlement unit of the London and COMEX markets, so it is the number every other quote is derived from. One troy ounce equals 31.1035 grams, or 1.00000 troy ounces, which at today's platinum spot price works out to — PHP.
Where it is used. Bullion bars and coins are struck in 1 oz, 10 oz and 100 oz sizes, and dealer spreads are quoted as a premium over the ounce spot price. The unit is the trading standard in global wholesale markets.
Pricing conventions. Because the ounce is the contract unit, it carries the tightest spread of any weight: retail premiums on a 1 oz coin typically run a few percent, while a 400 oz good-delivery bar trades near spot. Platinum has almost no traditional-unit retail market: it is quoted per ounce or per gram, and this conversion is mainly used for jewellery weighing and industrial stock.
Good to know. The troy ounce is heavier than the everyday avoirdupois ounce (28.35 g) — a mix-up of roughly 10% that still catches out first-time buyers.

Buying Platinum in Philippines: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per troy ounce, the price you see here is the international XPT spot price converted into Philippine Peso. Physical buyers in Philippines pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Manila, with the Bangko Sentral coin programme. Buyers there generally watch the LBMA price converted at the BSP reference rate as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. Silver, platinum and palladium have a thin retail market and are usually imported to order. Platinum is a much smaller market driven by autocatalyst and jewellery demand, so local availability is patchier and dealer spreads wider. That is why the shop price of platinum in PHP can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same troy ounce of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in Philippines are Bangko Sentral gold buying stations, authorised coin dealers, jewellery districts such as Meycauayan and online dealers. The products most often quoted locally include 1 oz coins, 10 g and 100 g bars, 18K jewellery.
Local conventions. Small-scale domestic mining supplies much of the local gold, and 18K jewellery is the common retail purity. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per troy ounce with the live platinum price above, and check the buy-back spread the same dealer offers — that round-trip cost matters more than a small difference in the headline PHP quote.
