Original person (who started the thread) Yes, welcome to PsychCentral. I'm reminded of a ring I have of my grandmothers that was made in China before the Communists, 24 carat gold, and it has Chinese characters written in the inside of the band and I took it into a New York jeweler in Chinatown and asked what they said and they looked at me and said "24 carat" and I said, "I know, but what does it say" :-) My girlfriend and the jeweler said, again, at the exact same time, "24 carat!".

This isn't my ring and it looks like the person whose it is has the same problem I have as they "know" it is 22K or 24K but are wondering about the "maker's marks" (whereas we now know it just says, 22K or 24K :-)

Excuse me, but when did this thread turn into a discussion
about how to recognize a high-karat gold ring?

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
