Gold is measured in carats. It it made up of 24 carats (parts) altogether. If the jewelery is 9 parts gold and 15 parts other metals, it is 9 carat gold. If it is 18 parts gold and 6 parts other, it is 18 carat gold. The more carats it is, the more valuable it is.
9k is different from 18k or 24k because 24k is pure gold and 18k and 9k have more metals in them so that helps the become more endurable. but if you want pure metal get 24k
Gold should be stamped with the appropriate karat level e.g. 9K=9 karat, 18k=18 karat. The higher the number the more gold the piece contains. The lowest tends to be 9K.
It depends on the Karat weight. 18K white gold is 75% gold and 25% alloy, 14K white gold is 58% gold and 42% alloy, 9K white gold is 32% gold and 68% alloy. White and yellow gold have exactly the same gold content. The only difference is the alloy mixed with the gold. White gold is usually yellow gold mixed with silver, palladium or nickel.
9kt is the proper abbreviation it is often misspelled. 9kt is often referred to as Mexican, Chinese, and European gold. no gold is cheap right now look out for scammers.
Gold purity is measured in karats based on 24 karats being pure gold. 18k means the gold is 18 out of 24 karats pure: 18 parts gold to 6 parts alloy. 9k means the gold is of low purity, only 9 parts gold to 15 parts alloy. The letter k after a number normally means "thousand" when your talking about gold, silver, etc. It is normally used in games like runescape etc.

If the case is marked as karat gold, yes. That would be 10K, 14K, 18K. There may be some marked 9K. Most are not solid gold. They are marked RGP, (rolled gold plate), or 1/20th 14k which is one quality of gold fill.
