Inspect the Item for Hallmark

Hallmark is an official mark struck on items made of precious metal mostly to certify the content—platinum, gold, silver. Hallmarks are distinguishing marks stamped on gold, silver and platinum items in order to identify the items purity. There are also hallmarks that can identify a producer’s mark, where the item was made, the year when it was made and the designer. Depending on the item, these hallmarks can be found in a variety of places; necklaces usually have a hallmark near the clasp, rings on the inside while coins mostly have a stamp on the front face. It is best that you use a magnifying glass to see the hallmark clearly.

Use a Magnet to Test

A magnet test is another simple test you can do at home. Just grab a simple magnet and hold it near the precious metal.

Considering that gold is not magnetic, if your piece of jewellery is even slightly attracted to the magnet, then you know your item does not contain solid gold, silver or platinum. Cheap metals with contents of iron and steel are mostly used in counterfeit and costume jewellery. However, the most reliable and safe test is rely on our trusted and experienced experts.
