To test the authenticity of your gold item, you should gently place it into water.

Real gold is dense and heavy, meaning it will sink to the bottom of the container rather than float.

If your gold item floats in water, it is likely not made of pure gold but contains other lighter metals.

Gold is a noble metal that does not rust or tarnish, even when exposed to water.
