Metal that is plated in gold can not have the stamp.
18K Gold Plated.
A1 is a British electroplating hallmark and means superior quality. As this hallmark is for silver pieces and there is no mark allowed for gold plaiting it is most likely that you have a high quality silver plated piece that was further plated with gold. This is allowed under British law.
yes 22-23kt plated
No. It may say '18k plated', but will never carry a hallmark or mark of fineness.
925 is the international hallmark for sterling silver, it is not gold If it is gold-colored, then it is gold-plated sterling
Not real gold. If there is no 10K stamp or 417 marking, its probably plated. Sorry.
In a word,no! Hallmarks are a stamp of qulaity only applied to solid gold items.
QG 14k , i got gold... with this stamp on it, i cannot find anywhere what it means? is real gold or not?
The 14 k stamp simply means it is a 14 karat gold electroplate and not plated 14 k thg.
Actually 14K is the American stamp, 14ct is a European stamp for 14 Carat gold. So yes it is real.
Yes. The 925 indicates that the piece is 92.5% sterling silver.
It means you likely have a gold plated bracelet with crystals (not diamonds). I got duped too.
