....I had this for about 4 years now sitting in a box.I just went threw my collection the other day and it stood out ..it has gold features.its very mallable.I had it tested with acid it stood the test against 18k.but would not wipe off the streak plate.it is solid metal threwout.I broke a piece of and smashed with a hammer and filed it down.the specs that came off from filing it were all golden specs.however it has this silvery shine except for when you put it under a light..any info would be appreciated. I know I should get a assay done.but im hoping to figure it out on my own or with some help...thanks shawn

I Dont Know Much About Gold Testing... But It Looks Like Aluminum To Me. Fingers Are Crossed Though!

Sadly, I have to say that it is not gold!

Gold looks like gold! That does not look like gold.
