What's the difference in quality/price of gold versus white gold?  Can anyone recommend a website?

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.

No. White gold is an alloy of gold and silver. Therefore is less expensive than gold since it has a small percent of silver in it.\n(But be careful because some people refer to platinum as white gold. Platinum is far more expensive than gold)

White Gold is a special alloy made by treating gold with White Metals such often as Silver, Palladium, Nickel, Tin, Antimony, Cadmium, Bismuth, and Zinc.\n\nMaking Gold white is similar to mixing colours in paints. Adding a red metal (Copper) will tend to make Gold red and adding a white metal tends to make Gold paler and eventually white. Thus, all other alloying metals to Gold, apart from Copper, will tend to whiten the colour and so it is possible to make carat Gold that are a reasonable white colour. \n\nWhilst additions of any white metal to Gold will tend to bleach its colour, in practice, Nickel and Palladium (sometimes Platinum) are strong 'bleachers ' of Gold, Silver and Zinc are moderate bleachers and all others are moderate to weak in effect.\n\nThis has given rise, historically, to two basic classes of white Gold - the Nickel whites and the Palladium whites. The Nickel-whites tend to have a colder white colour, whereas the Palladium whites have a warmer colour. Good nickel whites tend to be hard and difficult to process. Good Palladium whites tend to be soft, easy to process but are much more expensive, because of the price of Palladium.\n\nColour of White Gold is light grey unassisted, so jewellery made of white Gold typically is coated in highly reflective Rhodium, or another prised precious metal, Platinum, to give it its bright white colour.

Gold is the favorite bank reserve to support their currency all around the world. It has limited production and hard to find on Earth. Beside that, every ladies on Earth love to wear the jewelry. Gold is using more and more when the population keeps going up. Now it's $625/ ounce. You can double money in 2 yrs if you bought gold. USD keeps going down, gold will be more expensive.\nMr. Vu

You would not want to plate white gold with platinum, you should do this with regular gold for the simple fact that yellow gold is cheaper than white gold so you would be cutting your overheads.

The difference between yellow gold or white gold (or silver) is colour. There is not too much difference between white gold, silver, or platinum for that matter. It all comes down to price and prestige. The more you spend, the easier to show off with pride.\n\nOf course, the best place to start is in her own jewellery collection. Some people don't like the look of yellow gold on themselves. Others say the same of silver. \n\nIf you don't have access to her jewellery collection, look at what she wears on a regular basis. Buy something that will match a piece she already wears.\n\nDon't forget that you can add semi-precious gemstones to jewellery to add to its sparkle and visual appeal. See sources for jewellery of this type.

I has about one ounce of gold. It is a common date. $20 gold pieces in general are worth a little more than the gold content. The value is dependent on the condition. If it is uncirculated--no wear--it is worth the most. With gold currently at $641, I would guess about $700. An uncirculated coin maybe $750. If it is soldered to the chain, that will lower the value to the price of gold.

According to my research, Gold definately has room to grow till the US$1000 per ounce.. But if you compare to GOld and silver, silver definately will much greater room.

Gold is not naturally white so I would assume it is false unless coming from a very reputable jeweler.
