The Recording Industry Association of America first launched the Gold and Platinum Awards Program in 1958 to recognize artists’ achievements in sales. The Gold Record marks 500,000 units, Platinum 1,000,000 units, Multi-Platinum 2,000,000 plus, and Diamond 10,000,000 plus.

All RIAA certifications are calculated by Gelfand, Rennert and Feldman. It is important to note that certifications must be applied for as they do not happen automatically.
