How do you differentiate from gold and pyrite??

If I find it, it is pyrite. If anyone else finds it, it is gold!:laughing7:
 
Take a sewing needle and try and chip out a piece. If you can, it's pyrite. The sure fire way is to ask a local jeweler to acid test it.
 
Welcome to TNet, Giangiul in Michigan, from Nick in CT! :hello:
 
Looks like pyrite to me but it is hard to tell in you pick, take a pic outside with no flash in the sun and one outside in shade...
