I'm trying to learn how to tell the difference between types of gold. Other than reading the tag, how do I tell the difference? And what is each worth (in detail...value by weight)? If you can give as much detail as possible, I would really appreciate it! Thanks for any help, in advance.
Jewelry should be stamped which it is because 10-14 k you really can not tell by looking at it unless you have a high suspicion. 18k which is the purest gold by weight of these three (24k pure gold is too soft to form into jewelry so it is mixed with another metal, hence 14k, 18k etc), may be softer to scratching (one way to tell) and MAY have a yellower appearance (particularly in asian & middle eastern gold). The higher gold content is worth more, although in jewelery, the price will depend on the design work involved.
