Gold Om Pendant: Weight, Today’s Rate & Resale Value
The Om (also spelled Aum) symbol is one of the most sacred symbols in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism, representing the primordial sound of the universe. A gold Om pendant is a popular devotional and fashion piece worn by people of all ages, ranging from small minimalist designs to larger ornate stone-set versions.
At resale, only the gold weight and purity determine cash value – the symbolic and devotional significance does not add a resale premium.
