Here's a helpful video to test you gold jewelry from home. Doesn't cost a lot at all. You can buy an acid testing kit online for 10$. I also show a few different methods on how to confirm real/fake jewelry. I always run into different pieces that require some testing.

I was so afraid to acid test for a long time, I think the word acid scared me, but then I thought lemon juice is an acid. Thanks for showing us your process.

Princess Casserole umm, there’s various levels of acid and can be very very different, acids meant to pour on solid gold bullion bars accidentally dropped on your hand will begin to eat through it immediately

Just purchased a 3mm diamond cut 24' franco chain. I really like the way 2 chains look together. I also love the way the rope and franco look together. I was wondering if you could show a franco and rope combo but with a silver franco and a gold rope. Im just curious because i like a rope in gold so I would rather purchase a gold one. Love your videos dude definitely keep up the good work!

I have a question for you if 10kt gold has copper and zinc at around 35% or so altogether, am I able to test jewelry by putting acid directly into the chain without harming it? Or are those videos only for 24kt gold or 18kt gold

Hey was just wondering if i own alot of 14k pieces can i have it smelt and the gold only extracted to get a higher karat or once its mixed its lost! really hope this isnt a dumb question. Sick vid man subbed and smashing all as i go along ! keep it up!
@jacoje
@jacoje 7 лет назад
+linmacoy why would you want to melt your 14kt gold? You're going to lose gold in the process. Better off just buying pure gold

I bought a 14k gold chain from a well established jewelry store. It was tested at a pawnshop with the digital tester that they use and marked from 13.98 to 14.02 14.03. It was also tested with acid and passed but didn’t pass the magnet test so I’m confused now. Anyone know why? Maybe the alloy used?
@armandojberrios
@armandojberrios 6 лет назад

Question how can u tell the difference between a 18K gold chain and fake 18k gold chain
@michaelpierce9076
@michaelpierce9076 4 года назад
hey man, my family is really old and traces back to the civil war. We have allot of silver and gold items. However, I got curious and decided to do the magnet test on the chains that are in the old jewelry chest. Nearly all of the had some attraction. Its it just a straight rule that all fake gold jewelry is Ferris alloy in them? Magnet test is 100% reliable qualifier for the presence of gold in a chain? I am extremly puzzled. Because one of the chains is a sarah cov chain. That one also had attraction to the magnet. Is Sarah Cov pieces of craap?

@dreadknot2238

Easy way to tell is get a torch and burn the crap out of the jewelry if it ember bright orange yellow then it real gold and if the conent is lower then the ember colour won't be bright and hold up as long.

I have 14K Turkish very fine, station style necklace and the chain parts (not the stations) are slightly magnetic , but my local jeweler made the acid scratch test and the whole necklace passed it... Is it something in alloy that makes the chain little bit magnetic ?
@jacoje
@jacoje 7 лет назад
+oldpalmcity could have some alloy that is magnetic in it. That's a very common question and it happens to a lot of people's chains. I would assume it's real but it depends on the manufacturer and what exact alloys the used to make the chain.

+Brian Loya depends on who you ask. VS diamonds are top shelf that are rarely used in most jewelry you see. Every jeweler claims using VS diamonds when it's simple not true.
