  1. Can.

    Profting some logos and appearance directly on the gold is the first trick to judge the authenticity and purity of gold.

    In general, there are some number descriptions on gold products, indicating the purity (percentage, K value) of gold, and you can better observe with the help of the magnifying glass. If there is some fading in gold, pay special attention to this.

    bite a bite
    like a gold in a costume drama. If your tooth mouth is superb, you can try to bite gold and judge the authenticity with bite marks to determine the true and false Essence

    of course, pay attention to the appropriate strength of bite, avoid damage to the teeth, and "merciless", should not bite too much. In theory, because the gold nature of gold is relatively soft in the metal, the bite marks will be left after the real gold is bitten. The deeper the bite marks, the higher the purity of the golden gold. However, improper use of this method will cause "catastrophic" to gold products, so be careful.

    suction
    The ones with magnets at home, you can use magnets to suck it to judge the authenticity of gold. Because gold is not a magnetic metal, if the magnet can attract gold products, it is fake.

    of course, this method should be applied with other methods, because it cannot be attracted by the magnet alone, which is not enough to prove that this golden device is true.

    Scraped it
    In a glazed porcelain plate, scrape it with the corner of the gold, and pick some places that are not hindered, so as not to waste gold and plates.

    . If a black scratch is left on the porcelain plate, the gold is not true gold. If the scratch is golden, it is true gold. Gently scrape it, let the true and false gold original.

  2. First, you can use fire to burn the highest temperature at the top of the flame for 3 minutes. If the shape is not changed and the shape is not faded, it is real gold. If it is black or K gold gold, the melting point of alloy or K gold gold is 1064 degrees. The heat will melt into liquid gold
    The second use of teeth to bite the real gold and hardness. After the tooth marks, the more metal of the real gold, the higher the metal, the other metal does not have this feature (Mohs hardness 2.5)

  3. Hello, because there are no tools, you can only perform destructive testing. It is recommended to go to professional places such as gold recycling places, pawnshop, jewelry processing places, and identify the purity.

    This clamped with a metal clip directly and placed directly on the outer flames of the gas stove.
