The price across the days
The Ghana Gold Board publishes no archive of its approved prices. The table above is this site's own record, one row per day from its readings. Each row shows the GoldBod pound price in cedis, the LBMA price in dollars, and the cedi reference rate used.

Why the record starts short
The board publishes two prices on trading days, off the LBMA AM and PM benchmarks, but it keeps no archive. This site reads the board's page twice a day and keeps the latest window's figure for each day. The record therefore starts on the day this site began reading, and it grows one row at a time.
A short record is still useful. It shows how the approved price has moved in the days covered, and it shows the inputs behind each move: the LBMA dollar price and the reference rate. A reader who wants a longer series will not find one from the board, because the board does not publish it. This site's record is the only day-by-day account of the approved price.
What each column shows
The table above has a column for the date, a column for the GoldBod pound price in cedis, a column for the LBMA price in dollars, and a column for the cedi reference rate the board used. When a day has both a morning and an afternoon price, the later one is kept. That means the table shows one price per day, the latest available.
The LBMA price in dollars is the benchmark the board uses. The reference rate is the rate the board uses to convert that dollar price into cedis. The pound price is the result. A reader can see at a glance whether a change in the pound price came from the dollar side or the cedi side, because both inputs are shown.
Why the later price is kept
The board publishes two prices on trading days: one off the LBMA AM benchmark and one off the LBMA PM benchmark. The two can differ because the LBMA price moves during the day. This site keeps the later price, the PM one, as the day's figure. That is the most recent approved price before the next trading day.
A reader who sold gold in the morning may have been paid at the AM price, and the table will not show that if the PM price is different. The table is a daily record, not a tick-by-tick one. A seller should always check the board's page for the current price at the time of sale, because the table above is updated from this site's readings, not in real time.
The reference rate can move on its own
The cedi reference rate the board uses is not fixed. It can change even when the LBMA dollar price is unchanged, and that will move the pound price in cedis. The table shows the reference rate for each day, so a reader can see when a cedi move was the cause of a price change.
That matters because a seller is paid in cedis. If the reference rate weakens, the same dollar price gives more cedis, and the approved price rises. If the reference rate strengthens, the approved price falls. The table separates those two effects, so a reader can tell whether the world gold price moved or the cedi conversion moved.
The LBMA price is the world benchmark
The LBMA price is set in US dollars in London, twice a day. It is the benchmark the board uses for its approved purchase price. The table above shows the LBMA price for each day, in dollars. When the LBMA price moves, the GoldBod pound price moves in the same direction, unless the reference rate moves the other way.
A reader who follows the international gold price can compare it with the LBMA column in the table. The LBMA price is not the only world price, but it is the one the board has chosen. The table shows what the board saw, not what another source might have reported.
What the record does not show
The table above does not show the Bank of Ghana's interbank rate, and it does not show a world gold price at the interbank rate. Those are shown on other pages. It also does not show the gram or troy ounce prices; those are on the price-by-unit page. The day-by-day record is deliberately narrow: the approved pound price and the two inputs that make it.
That narrowness is a choice. A reader who wants the full picture can look at the other pages. The day-by-day record is meant to answer one question: how has the approved price moved, and what moved it. It does not forecast, and it does not explain the board's choices. It is a record, not an analysis.

Questions about the gold price
q
Why is there no archive from the board?
a
The Ghana Gold Board publishes the current approved price on its homepage, but it does not keep a public archive of past prices. That is why this site keeps its own record from its daily readings. The record starts short and grows over time.
q
What if a day has both an AM and a PM price?
a
This site keeps the later price, the PM one, as the day's figure. That is the most recent approved price before the next trading day. A seller who sold in the morning may have been paid at the AM price, which is not shown separately in the table.
q
How often is the table updated?
a
The site reads the board's page twice a day on trading days, after the AM and PM LBMA benchmarks are published. The table is updated with the latest reading that passes the site's checks. It is not real-time; a seller should check the board's own page for the current price.
q
Can I see the interbank rate on this page?
a
No. The day-by-day table shows the GoldBod pound price, the LBMA dollar price, and the board's reference rate. The interbank rate is shown on the inside-the-price page and the price-by-unit page. This page is deliberately narrow.
q
What is the LBMA price?
a
The LBMA price is a benchmark gold price set in US dollars in London, twice a day. The Ghana Gold Board uses it as the basis for its approved purchase price. The table shows the LBMA price for each day, in dollars.
