<>24 carat is considered "pure" gold.

Gold is measured by purity, not weight.  Pure gold is 24 carat but would be too soft for jewellery usage.  The most common used in US is 14 carat - meaning 14 parts pure gold and 10 parts of another alloy or metal.  In UK wedding rings are usually 18 carat whilst middle range jewellery is 9 carat - 9 parts pure gold and 15 parts another alloy or metal.\n\nThis 'carat' is not to be confused with the carat used in diamonds........that is a different proposition altogether and denotes weight..............

One carat in this sense is one twenty-fourth purity by weight. Therefore 24-carat gold is pure gold (99.99%), 12-carat gold is 50% purity. Therefore 10K will be about 42% pure gold and 14K will be about 58% pure gold.

Well, I don't know how to test for 9 kt gold, but I do know that 8 kt gold and 5 kt gold exist.  Unfortunately I don't know anything about the availability.  The word karat just refers to how pure the gold is.  For example 24 karat is 100% pure, and 18 karat is 75% pure and so on.  So of course it is possible to make 8 or 5 or 13 or 22 karat gold, but I don't think it's very common.  \n\nNow, if you know what other metal the gold is mixed with, and you know the specific gravity of the gold and the other metal, you could probably determine the karat of the gold by comparing that to the specific gravity of your sample and plugging it into the equations.

1/10 or a little more, that is, 35, 40 dollars but if the whole thing is gold you can get the market price by weight\n\ngo to this link and learn more about gold and gold price\n\nhttp://www.mine.mn/Prices_Metals_Minerals_Gems.htm

Gold is much heavier than fools gold.

Gold closed today at $534.00US per ounce. It would cost you that plus a commission to purchase. You can buy less than an ounce. Commissions vary depending on amount and form, i.e., bullion, coins, etc. purchased. Check your local coin shop.\n\nhttp://www.monex.com/monex/controller?pageid=prices

I'd assume silver, because that is what just about always has been used to harden 24k (pure) gold..

That's about to change! The cost to manufacture synthetic diamonds is continually going down to the point now where the diamond mining companies are getting worried, especially since the "imitation" diamonds are more perfect than the real thing!\n\nBut we can't say the same thing about gold. Nobody knows how to make gold yet and it's currently over $600 an ounce and going higher.

24k is a type of gold if u had a neckless it would not be as strong then say 10k 14k 18k

Gold's "quality" is measured by karat value, not by color.\n\nGold is yellow--and that is the only color pure (24 karat) gold is. It's what is added to gold that effects it color--not the gold itself.\n\nWhite gold can be produced up to 21 karat. There must be at least 3 parts (karats) of the 24 karats of pure gold that is other metals. By adding certain other metals to gold the yellow of the pure gold can be bleached to a white appearance.\n\nI use not only yellow and white gold in my fabrication, but a variety of other colors--all achieved by adding specific metals to pure gold.\n\nThere is a difference in price between the gold colors due to manufacturing costs and the cost of the specific metals used. However, with the exception of white gold where no nickel is used and palladium (a member of the platinum group) is used, the difference is insignificant. It is the karat quality of the gold that is the real determiner of price.\n\nThere are two things to remember about white gold. On the positive side, it is significantly stronger than yellow gold of the same karat. Therefore, if you are making say a wedding band for a man who worked with his hands, white gold is a good choice. On the negative side, if you suffer from nickel allergies--and at least 5% of the population does--then you should either avoid white gold or pay a substantially higher price for nickel-free white gold that is alloyed with palladium.

A 1/4  troy oz. gold Britannia has a diameter of 22mm . \n\nA 1/4 troy oz. American gold eagle has a diameter of 22 mm .\n\nA 1/4 troy oz. gold Krugerrand has a diameter of 22 mm .\n\nAll three are about 7/8" ( the size of a nickel) and have a gold weight of 7.776 grams but their actual weight will vary as they are all alloyed differently. Pure 24 karat gold is much to soft for coins or jewelry and is always alloyed with metals like silver, nickel, copper, etc..\n\n.999 (24 k) gold can be bought in bar form unalloyed.
