They say gold worth 1600 an ounce
So with no diamonds, my bracelet worth a townhouse

Meaning
Looks like Curren$y is up to date on his financial investment information!
Over the past decade, gold prices have increased by 300%, and peaked at $1908/ounce in August 2011. Since then, prices have dropped to roughly the $1600-$1700 range.
Curren$y’s solid bracelet would need to weigh roughly 2 pounds in order to be worth as much as a nice, well-equipped townhouse, which is a tad bit heavy for a bracelet.
Nevertheless, Spitta’s bracelet is clearly worth a pretty penny.
