4 clean your gold piece with a jewelry-cleaning cloth three times. if your gold is fake, the cloth will remove the gold color off the jewelry.
5 take your gold jewelry to a local jewelry store if you are still unsure. they can take an x-ray and run a gold test to let you know for certain.
real gold is a light shade of gold and not very shiny, so take a long look at gold jewelry before you buy it.
just because a piece of gold jewelry is stamped with "14k" does not make it so; do not assume it is real without checking.
