Necklace made of 24K Gold


The purchase receipt has gone missing for this 24K gold necklace that has been kept for more than thirty years.

I can figure out the hallmark of pure gold, 999 fineness, and the name of the local goldsmith.

I don't have a digital scale but I estimate this necklace weighs at least 20 grams.

Latest: The exact weight of this necklace is 22.31 grams. Sold!

Pendant Frame made of 22K Gold


With the price of gold hovering around US$1000 per troy ounce, this small piece of 916 fineness pendant frame is worth some money.

Gold of 916 fineness is rather soft, and the ring attachment on top of this pendant frame has been worn out by years of usage.

This frame weighs exactly 2.90 grams and has a pure gold content of least 2.65 grams. It has a scrap-gold value of S$95.00 when I'd sold it to a goldsmith shop on March 17, 2008. Sold!

Clip-on Bracelet made of 20K Gold


This old-fashioned clip-on bracelet has a tiny locking screw and two jingling accessories attached.

This bracelet was bought from a goldsmith shop in Chinatown way back in 1969 when the price of gold was relatively cheap and affordable.

It weighs exactly 14.70 grams and has a pure gold content of 12.25 grams.

Today the price of gold has hit the four-figure mark of US$1000 per troy ounce. The currency exchange rate of US$1.00 is equivalent to S$1.385.

Necklace made of 22K Gold


With the price of gold hovering around an all-time high of US$995 per troy ounce and within striking distance from the magic $1000 mark, this short piece of 916 fineness gold necklace is worth some money.

Ain't no way that I will treat this nice piece of gold item just like a piece of scrap-gold.

Fortunately I haven't sold this necklace to an eager buyer about four weeks ago when the gold price was about US$908 per ounce because I haven't yet checked out the exact weight of this item. Since then the gold price has gone up by about ten percent and now I'll get several more bucks from the sale.

The exact weight of this necklace is 7.96 grams and it has a pure gold content of at least 7.29 grams. Sold!
