First of all, you can try the proportion test with water. Prepare a tall cup, full of water, and throw the metal in. Pure gold jewelry will soon sink. Imitation gold and other metals may float above the bottom, or even float on the water. In addition, real gold will not rust, nor will it be tide. When testing with magnets, the real gold can never suck the magnet. The magnet is easy to carry and can be placed in the pocket at will for easy testing. There are many imitation gold and other alloys that can attract magnets. Therefore, as long as you take the magnet to approach them and see if they will be attracted by the magnet, you can judge the truth. Test it with ceramics, first prepare a ceramic plate without glazing, then put metal on it, and apply a little pressure to see if cash will be cash on the ceramic. Some cases are true, but if black appears, it is false. Fire burning test, real gold is not afraid of fire, real gold will become brighter when burning, and it will not change color after cooling.
