A nine carrot gold plated sterling silver is both gold and silver. This would be more sliver than gold.
Sterling silver is stamped "sterling" or "925". Other metals may say "nickel free," "stainless," "surgical steel," "silver plated," "WGF" (white gold filled), "nickel silver," "Peruvian silver," "German silver," "Tibetan silver," "Bali Silver," and a number of other things, but NOT sterling or 925. That's the key.
If it's sterling silver, it is not magnetic. Real gold and silver are not magnetic.
Sterling silver can easily be differentiated from plated silver if the silver was made in the United States. It will either say 'sterling' on the metal or have an engraving of its purity. Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver. If it was made outside the United States, there will be a different stamp applied to it.
No. That means that it is 92.5% sterling silver. It's not gold.
I would say 98% of the time if it is gold plated it is not a real diamond. diamonds are mounted in silver but not very often and they are lower quality.
99.99% of the time it is Plated, once again it is not silver. the only flatware that is made of silver will say on it somewhere STERLING
It is real silver-plated. Full silver is described as 999 or sterling silver.

Would a genuine diamond be set in a ring stamped 925 m
The 925 mark indicates that the piece is made from 92.5% sterling silver, not gold.
The short answer is no. Real 9K or more gold is not magnetic, nor is silver. If you find that ur ring or necklace is sticking to a magnet it is plated and is not real.
