DescriptionThese earrings are a nice large hoops that are 14KT yellow gold. These are Hallmarked.
The total weight of these nuggets is:
1.418 GRAMS
21.88 Grains
.911 DWT (Pennyweight)
.0455 Troy Ounces
If you are new to buying gold, here are some great tips:
Gold Weight:
Compare the weight in grams or ounces of the nugget to the current spot price of gold. (There are 31.1 grams per troy oz.) Nuggets do fetch more than raw melted gold due to its rarity in nugget form. Remember, gold weight is most often listed in troy and metric values. The weight of gold can be measured in troy ounces, grams, or penny weight. See chart below:
1 oz. (troy) = 31.10 g (31.1 grams)
1 oz. (troy) = 20 dwt (20 pennyweight)
1.55 grams = 1 dwt (1 pennyweight)
1.0 grams = 15.43 gr (15.43 grains)
Be sure you know the difference between a gram and a grain! Some unscrupulous sellers will intentionally mislead you by listing the weights incorrectly with common abbreviations (\"g\" is for grams and \"gr\" is for grains). If you see a 10gr nugget selling for $480.00 on , watch out - it should be more like $31.00! 10 GRAINS is equal to just 0.479 GRAMS. Remember it takes 15.43 grains (gr) to make just one gram (g) of gold. And there are 31.1 grams to one troy ounce. A grain is the smallest unit of measurement of gold. now prohibits the use of the word \"GRAIN\" in the title description line.
Gold nuggets are valued differently than raw gold and gold in coin form. When evaluating natural gold, consider several factors. Gold may be valued on: weight, rarity, physical dimensions, shine, brightness or luster, purity, origin, and whether the nugget is considered collector or specimen grade. Less than 2% of all gold mined is in nugget form. Gold nuggets are now rarer than diamonds.
DETERMINING FAIR VALUE: Gold Weight and Color! For an average quality nugget, weight and color are your best bets for determining value. Look for bright and shiny gold - if the gold is dark, it may contain a high amount of copper or other less minerals and metals. Pure gold looks just as you would expect.
Testing Gold: The value of gold is based on the karat system, which is a 24 point scale, signifying the percentage of gold a piece of metal contains. So, if jewelry is 14KT, it is 14 out of 24 parts gold, or 58.33 percent gold. Nuggets are usually 20.5 to 22KT purity (81% - 95%). Gold is tested either with acid or electronically.
The acid test is the most reliable (not recommended) and commonly used method, yet can be dangerous due to the liquids used. This determines gold from base metals; yet can vary on the nugget. This will show the general karat range, but is not completely accurate unless you are an experienced tester. Electronic testers are used often, but one thing to keep in mind is that these testers utilize a surface test and will only give you the karat of the actual spot you are testing. You will need to test in several spots to ensure that you didn\'t just get one particularly fine area of the nugget. No electronic tester can test gold dust or flakes. Therefore, the only true accurate means is a destructive fire assay test, which means melting the gold.
Good Luck offerding!

About UsA bit about me and where the gold is mined..
.
I have been living in Alaska since 1989, and the Interior since 2006, and this is home. Most of my Alaskanplacer gold nuggets are fromCircle, Fairbanks,FortyMile, Bonnifield, Rampart, Yukon, Valdez and Ophirmining districts,Alaska. Between 35 and 50 miners supply me throughout the state; some in Canada. I clean the gold by a natural process to knock off the dirt.The color and shineof the gold will vary, depending on the creek, assay, metal content, etc. I don\'t always know the creek where your gold comes from, but most of the time I do.
I am a one-woman business and I believe in \"truth in advertising\". From 2009 until now, gold is my full time job after a long career in aviation since 1977.I have gained the trust in hundreds, maybe approaching thousands, ofreturn customers, including other sellers and plan to keep it that way.
I also sell fine jewelry and custom made Alaskan nuggetpieces hand craftedby my friend and neighbor, Jim.He is a talented jeweler and his custom pieces are one of a kind. I have a source for vintage Alaskan jewelry, and some of the time I will know the history of the items. I give as much information about the pieces as I can. When I don\'t know a certain stone, I will state that. I\'m not a gemologist, but I do know gold. All diamonds will be tested and stated in the description.You will most likely be buying pieces for about 1/3of retail price. I can pass the savings along to you because I buy it right.Every now and then, I buysome silver (not my thing); but when I see vintage or special pieces or coins, they will go on the blocks.
Keep watching my listings and add me to your \"favorite sellers\". I willsend you automated emails with my newest items,if you click the box. I believe I get the most unique, one of a kind jewelry of any seller on . I\'ve been at it a very long time and selling on since 1999.
If you seeerrors in my listings, please let me know...never any offense taken!
