This is a cheap and easy test you can do at home to test your gold jewellery if you are uncertain of its legitimacy. The test is not by any means the most accurate, but if it's all you have available to you it is worth giving it a try. All you need is some white vinegar of any brand and a container to dip your gold jewellery into.
It does not matter whether you have yellow, white or rose gold. A legit piece of jewellery will not begin to peel into another color. Having said that it's very important to keep in mind that if the piece peels and/or changes colors its not real gold, if it doesn't do any of the previously stated things It can still possibly be a fake piece of jewellery.
I tested 5 Chains in Total knowing in advance that only 1 was actually 18k Gold. However, the test result showed that only 1 of the chains(the last one) wasn't gold.
The test is not reliable and the results should be questioned. However, if it's all you got It could give you a very rough idea of what it could be.

Got me too. Today in Dallas Texas. It was a holiday so everywhere was closed, cause I was thinking he could just drive to a pawn to make way more money. I paid him 227. 2oz gold chain and 1oz gold ring. He was a good con man. I’m not a dummy and he got me. Going to suck for him when he meets my God at the white throne of judgement.
I'm sorry to hear that, the scams going around are insane. They take advantage of the limited tools out there to test and verify. Stay safe and I hope karma gets the best of him
pinning your comment for visibility more people need to be aware of these scams going around
Same thing just happened to me. Unsure if it was genuine or not.
@@bravosyx3922 unsure? dude trust me, its fake AF. And whatever you do don't wear it, its got Toxic lead in it.
To be honest, it sux! But you were being a little greedy only giving $227 for $2600 worth of gold. That alone should of made you realize it was fake, if he actually accepted that low. That’s crazy, that’s like selling your $100k car for $10k, it just doesn’t make sense no matter how you look at it. Sry to hear what happened though.
Won't work on thicker plating, unless the plating isn't gold. In that case, file into an inconspicuous area and test the exposed core or shavings
Happen to me at Hardware store in Indianapolis. He instantly took his ring off and handed to me I just walked off with it didn’t say a word
Was it real
You have to expose the base metals. The vinegar really struggles to penetrate the gold layer. File a tiny spot next time.
I have this long continuous chain and it reads up to 18k but fails at 22k and platinum. It can't be real right ?? It feels like it's hollow ??
I could definetly be hollow did you drop 14k acid on it?
@GildedBlanco I did and 18k and it passed but if I put 22k acid on it it eats it right away. It definitely feels light but not really light. Have u ever seen a metal chain that can pass for 18k ? I could take a quick video of it and show you the scratch and the acid tests and show u the chain ??
@@RockCity1111 Sure it sounds like it is 18k. But what do you mean by eats it when you put 22k?
@GildedBlanco opon further inspection it's most likely aluminum. I looked up aluminum goldtone continuous chain and it looks very close. I didn't realize aluminum didn't dissolve in solutions.
Dude where is your home
how can i test my 5 micron 18k gold on my ring? because i bought it online and according to them that my ring is gold plated in 18k real gold 5 micron how can i test it?
Whatever gold plated is gonna peel off .
Do you have a gold testing kit? With the black stone and acids
You don't test gold plated rings.
can you do this test on gold filled chains ?
I’ll try it out
Hi dude will this work with 9ct gold
Yup should be fine
The gold falls off the chain and its still not proof....wtf
Imagine all the people got scammed by the same person lol! I got scammed too I live in LA county area, CA. He drives a SUV either white or black I cant recall, has his wife and kids. Gave me 2 rings which turned green right away and a 18k gold chain that seems legit so far. But I think ima have to make a few more test. Still I got scammed.
BRUHHHH some guy pulled up on me in a grey chevy malibu and he claimed he was from dubai and he lost his documents and information and he tried selling me his gold ring i just gave him 20$ for the gold chain so i didnt lose too much luckily
And that was down here in texas
That Dubai just down to New York. He drives a white SUV and pull over on side of the 678 highway with his wife. He claimed he lost his credit card and needed money for gas. He hand over a ring and gold chain and asks for $200. And also show he has "rolex" with him. I gave him $40 and he throws me a ring. Just happen today 3/14/2023
Same lol. We gotta get them out of our cpuntry
Yup same person fucked me
What does igs stamp in gold stand for?
Il not too sure
So Helpful dude.
Not gunna lie the fake chain and fake gold ring the dubai gave me go hard af!
Where did he give you that at? AZ or Cali
@@Alanvega4201 i stay at Georgia. He was willing to give me his “rolex” for an extra $50. The chain and ring hasn’t worn out yet. He gave me from the good batch haha
Does it work for 14k? I’m paying $400 for a solid gold 14k ring soon, want to make sure it’s real.
The test are good for a test of reference but like I mentioned if you wanna be 100% certain just go to a professional. Sorry for the late response
Meet him at a pawnshop so you can get it tested but make sure you know the shop you go to test for gold
Did you test it
I can advise you to go in shop of jw they test it well you pay little money 💰
14k isn't pure gold..
@@Naejakire3I’m sure they know that lmao. Pretty much every listing of jewelry that 14k says 14k solid gold meaning the gold that’s in it is real gold not that the whole thing is fully gold🤦🏼♀️
I'ma try this right now and see what happens I have a 18k gold chain my friend bought off of some dude who supposedly claimed to be from Dubai
any luck?
@@GildedBlanco I haven't done it yet I was gonna ask does it matter what vinegar I use or does it got to be a specific one
@@byronfernandez895 any white vinegar should work
@@GildedBlanco ok thank you I'll inform you soon if anything helped
No way the same thing happened to my friend, guy claimed to be from Dubai and they were 18k that’s crazy where did that happen to your friends cause were also wondering if there real lol
Do u have to leave it in for a hr? Or doesn't matter
The effect might start earlier there isn’t really a set time but if you don’t see any chances after an hour I would just remove it
@@GildedBlanco my shit was gold plated 😂
Price koto
well now i'm thinking that Gold necklace the EX gave me aint ugly looking,,but if itz fake it will be after a vinegar bath. Better just trade it at the Bar for Pizza n beer
pizza n beer is pizza n beer!
I am currently trying this right now…
How did it go?
Hmmm
👍👍👍👍👍
Can you also do this with a 24k gold coins
I haven't tried it myself, did you?
No i did not try it
