Gold Marks
  • In gold jewelry, a stamping of 24 kt or 999 means that it is 100 percent pure gold, 18 kt or 750 means that is 75 percent pure gold, 14 kt or 585 is 58.3 percent pure gold, and 10 kt or 417 is 41.6 percent pure gold.
Silver Marks
  • A stamping of 925 in silver jewelry means that it is sterling silver and contains 92.5 percent pure silver, with the rest being other metals such as copper. In European jewelry, it is also possible to see hallmarks such as .800 or .813 which also indicate the percentage of pure silver in the piece.
