I have tested this theory on several different pieces of jewelry. I apply a layer of liquid foundation on my forearm. let it dry. i would firmly place the jewelry against my skin and drag it across the makeup covered area. if it leaves a green or black streak, it definitely has some kind of gold on the surface. that does not tell you if it is solid, plated, or what karat. only that it has gold on it.
No, using toothpaste to clean jewelry will not hurt the jewelry. It helps polish and restore shine. It is a very good method of cleaning jewelry and a lot of people do it.

The gold content in a 1.00 (assuming you mean a 1.00 troy ounce of gold) is 1 troy ounce, which is equivalent to approximately 31.1 grams of pure gold. If referring to a piece of jewelry or another item, the gold content would depend on its karat rating, with 24 karats being pure gold. For example, 18-karat gold contains 75% gold content.
The difference between 10 carat gold and 18 carat gold is the purity of the gold content. 10 carat gold is made up of 41.7% gold, while 18 carat gold contains 75% gold. This means that 18 carat gold is more valuable and pure compared to 10 carat gold, which has a lower gold content.
