Ways to identify genuine gold and silver: First, look for the hallmark. The purity is marked (like 22K, 999). Do a magnet test. Real gold and high-purity silver do not stick to a magnet. Check the weight and density. Gold is heavy; gold of the same volume will feel heavier than fake gold. Check the colour by scratching it on a ceramic plate; genuine metal has a different colour. Get an acid (nitric) test done by an expert; using it at home is risky. Sound, texture, and fine finish are also indicators. If in doubt, consult a certified jeweller or get an XRF test done. Never compromise on genuineness.
