Examine for 24-carat gold
Fine gold, 24-carat gold, is subject to certain properties that can be recognized:
- Very malleable
- Bright yellow
- Radiant
- Fragile
- Hallmarked
Fine gold, also known as 24-carat gold, can be defined as gold that has not been mixed with any other metal, and is therefore pure (without alloys).
How can I tell if my jewelry is 24-carat gold?
Because it is so malleable, fine gold is hardly ever used in the jewelry industry to make jewelry you can invest in.
Bear in mind that the only 24-carat gold jewelry you'll find was not originally intended to be worn, but was only used in religious rites where the purity of the precious yellow metal is of paramount importance.
A precious metals expert such as GOLDMARKET will be able to tell you exactly whether it's 24-carat gold using several more precise methods
- His seasoned eye
- Apparent punches
- The acid test
- A mass spectrometer
- A second opinion from an independent laboratory
It is worth noting that pure gold is generally so rare that it will often be clearly indicated on the jewelry or investment product.

Mainly reserved for stock market buyers:
- Gold coins :Only on modern coins, period coins are in 21/22 or 23K.
- Gold ingots:ingots are 999.99% pureo
