If it's pure gold, it won't be harmed by any chemicals in the pool water. But if it's just gold plated, especially with copper, the chlorine could cause a greenish tarnish on the "gold" item and the skin contacting the "gold." But even then, it would probably take 8 - 12 hours in the pool water before the green tarnish would start to form, and how many people spend 8 - 12 hours in a pool at any one time?

What affect does the chlorine in a swimming pool have on jewelry?

I don't know the exact chemical reaction but my wife and I were told by the jewler not to wear our wedding rings in the pool. I took chemistry in college and I'm pretty sure chlorine forms hydrochloric acid in water, so there is a dilute acidic solution in swimming pools. So the reaction involved is between a metal and an acid.
