Thanks for watching!

[@prijjmasharma9254]

Can we use close up also?

[@WorkingIdeas]

Well this method is looks easy and I will follow this on one of my ear ring which I found on street😂

[@JewelryIntel]

Nice! How did it go?

[@LyricallySounded]

😂😂😂

[@prasadtony9872]

But i used this method but my gold ring did not give any different marks like black colour but its gold and hallmark ring 91.6

[@user-fg9js2ie4z]

Can I ask?
I have a golden coin.
I tried it the black stuff was there. Then I tried it on my quarter (20 European cents) and the black stuff also appears to be there. What does that mean?

[@HishoraYoshiro]

How about you get a glass of water then put the gold coin in there,if it floats its fake but if it sink its real

[@marklestergamayon4082]

I did that to my legit 18k gold ring and it doesn't have black on the white handkerchief but in a acid test in a black stone it indicates my gold is legit 18k gold

[@JewelryIntel]

Yes, the acid test is a more reliable method for verifying gold authenticity. The toothpaste test is a simple home method, but it might not always provide accurate results as your experience suggests. Thanks for sharing your experience!

i did it on my 18k gold it did leave a mark and i did it on a fake one and it did not leave any marks

gold also give black color when the gold is dirty

[@JewelryIntel]

That's a valid point! Dirt and oils can sometimes cause gold to appear black or tarnished. It's always a good idea to clean your gold items before testing them.

[@jasmine66666666]

Ah rite I thought that meant it was fake I have an old bear pendant with diamonds in I thought maybe 9ct and weighs about 11g I have been taking the diamonds of assuming there cv but a may get it checked now knowing it's real gold maybe real diamonds haha it's been lying about for years and has those black stains on it it's sort of soft and I can cut bits of with a blade is that 18ct

[@joellen426]

Exactly bc any jewelry that's dirty on a white cloth will leave a mark 😅

[@micahbyce2655]

This is only good at determining if the outside of the object is gold. Which could mean it's gold plated

[@JoMama-cs8cj]

​@@JewelryIntelgold does NOT tarnish

[@SaguiraMangakoy-un7xi]

I try my ring and then te result its like that but I don't see where is carats pls help me

[@gayatrikandara7371]

I have fake gold chain but it gives black spot

[@JewelryIntel]

Interesting observation! Fake gold can indeed react differently to various tests. The toothpaste test is not foolproof and might not work the same for every fake gold item. It's always better to have your items tested by a professional.

[@virginiasjimenez5329]

You didn't even put toothpaste on the other ring

[@malysacrockett8493]

Yes she did

[@JewelryIntel]

Hi Virginia. If you check around the first half of the video, you'll see both rings tested.

[@marklestergamayon4082]

Doest the toothpaste acid can damage the gold jewelry?

[@JewelryIntel]

You bring up a great point! Some toothpastes can have abrasive ingredients that might potentially scratch or damage gold, especially gold-plated jewelry. It's always safer to have your gold items evaluated by a professional.

[@bankbassin1612]

Bruh if your toothpaste has acid in it throw it away asap

[@ameofficial4652]

Thank you so much it's working❤

[@joeyitang181]

Thanks again

[@JewelryIntel]

Always welcome

Thanks

all metals leaves black marks when you polish it

[@JewelryIntel]

That's true! Many metals can leave black marks when polished. The toothpaste test is more of a fun DIY method rather than a definitive test for gold authenticity.

Thank you for this novel way to test fir gold plated pieces. I have never heard of this before.

[@HaroldtheNihongoStudent]

I am in to gold jewelry so I happen to find this video. 😅

[@JewelryIntel]

Nice! Do you have any other methods you use?

[@HaroldtheNihongoStudent]

@@JewelryIntel Nah. I think the magnet test is enough.

[@iamkatrinasetlebac6590]

a lot of fakes doesnt attract to magnets 😅

[@jenniferpacker9673]

Easy enough , Thanks

What's the slice cheese for though

[@JewelryIntel]

Hi Daniel. Not sure what you mean.

[@GpitaChann3l]

Does this method with toothpaste really test gold

[@JewelryIntel]

[@experto-expert]

Wright because dirty

[@JewelryIntel]

Hey @experto-expert, thanks for your comment!
You bring up a good point. Dirt can affect the outcome, giving misleading results. It's a simple, home-based method, but it's not the most reliable.
That's why it's good to combine this with other methods. Always good to have keen observers like you in the community! 👍✨
