Gold is priced by the ounce. A 50 pound block would be 600 ounces and would cost 600 times the one ounce price. (The reason it's 600 oz. is because gold -- and all precious metals -- are measured in Troy ounces, which are twelve to the pound.)

The current value of a gold bar depends on its weight, purity, and the live spot price of gold, which fluctuates daily based on market conditions.

A gold bar must meet the standard conditions of manufacture, labeling, and record keeping. A gold bar is then measured by the scale of troy ounces to determine its value.
It depends on the size of the bar and on the current price of gold. Right now gold is around $1600/oz so a one ounce bar would be worth $1600.
A properly stamped 1 gram gold bar is useful as a long term, tangible investment. The value depends on the reputation of the bar's source, the current market value of gold, and the fineness of the gold bar (i.e., 0.9999 is more fine and pure than 0.9995). A hallmarked bar from Credit Suisse is worth more than a bar from some lesser known assayer. To find the minimum base value, get the current value for a troy ounce from a place like Kitco, and divide by 31.1034768. I hope this helps someone.
Weight in oz of bar x current market value per oz
The value of the bar depends on the purity and weight. It needs to be taken to a silver & gold buyer for an assessment of value.
A 1 ounce gold bar is worth $1449.73 USD. The world's largest gold bar weights 551lbs (250kg), it was manufactured by Mitsubishi Material Cooperation in 2005, it has a value of $3,684,000 USD.
In 1492, the value of one gold bar can be challenging to determine precisely due to variations in weight, purity, and regional economic conditions. However, during the late 15th century, gold was highly valued, and a gold bar weighing approximately 400 ounces could be worth tens of thousands of modern dollars, considering historical gold prices and inflation. Additionally, the discovery of the New World significantly impacted gold's value and availability in Europe.
Gold's worth in monitary value, is dependent upon the stocks of the country that have gold. If companies lose money, gold value decreases, so be a smart invester.
