The online gold calculator GoldPerOunce.net gives current, approximate values of the precious metal. It suggests that currently, 1g of 14k gold is worth around $28.82 or £17.10. This is using the current gold price of $1,536.85 (£931.31) per troy ounce - equivalent to 31.1034768 grams. GoldPerOunce.net emphasises that this is an approximate value and that it does not factor in supply and demand or intrinsic value (such as rare items and collector coins). If you want to find an accurate pricing of a specific piece of gold, you should seek advise from a precious metal valuator. 

Gold is the most malleable and ductile of all the metals. A single gram can be beaten and flattened into a sheet of one square metre, an ounce can be flattened to 300 sq ft. Gold leaf can be beaten thin enough to become translucent and the light that shines through it will appear greenish blue. Gold has been used world wide for monetary exchange, either as gold coins or through gold-convertible paper instruments by establishing gold standards. Gold mining output is declining today and the production is not growing in relation to the world’s economies.

The 20th century saw the sharp growth of economies and an increase in foreign exchange. The world’s gold reserves and their trading market have since become a small fraction of all markets and the fixed exchange rates of currencies to gold are no longer sustained. Pure gold cannot be used for monetary use, as it is too soft, so it needs to be combined with other metals, such as copper or silver, to make a more hardened alloy. Pure gold is measured as 24 carats with the gold content of alloys decreasing as the carats do. 14 carat (k) gold is the second lowest cartage and is often used to create police and other badges due to its nearly identical colour to bronze.

Today's rate is $950 an ounce.  There are 28.34952 grams per ounce.  So you would have almost $34.00 worth.  Excuse me I didn't read the 14 karat part.  It would probably be less since 14 carat is not pure.
