about $30 maybe even $50. The 18 carats means that the gold element of the ring is 18 parts out of 24 gold, which is quite valuable. However, electroplated means that there is a thin layer of gold on the surface of other cheap metals to make up the ring. Electroplate involves very little gold.

It depends on what the plating is over. If its over Silver its worth a little more. Electroplating is an inexpensive process. Electorplating does not last long, and will rub off within weeks and reveal the alloy underneath. I wouldn't want to pay alot for any ring that has been electroplated.

The average price of 1 gram of 18K gold is around $30. This is equivalent to $1,230 per Troy Ounce.

Sorry but, no. The electroplating is very thin and virtually worthless.
