Great job deka!! WTG!!
 

Awesome !!!
Clad, Silver & GOLD in one hunt!!!

Maybe you guys already know this but some may not. I just found out a few weeks ago.

24K = 100% pure gold the other Kt ratings are a fraction of that
Examples:
10k = 10/24 or 41.666% pure gold
14K = 14/24 or 5.8333% Pure gold
18k = 18/24 or 75% Pure gold

So, if you want to know the amount of pure gold you have you simply weigh the item, then divide the weight by 24 and multiply by the Kt weight.
 

hey thanks guys and the numbers look GREAT!
 

Gold is cool, great finds!!

Keep @ it and HH!!
