How to Spot Real Italian Gold The Gold ATM
You should be careful when you buy Italian gold, though. Most jewelry in Italy is 18karat gold or higher. In Europe, they use a fineness mark instead of karat; it indicates the content of gold on a numeric scale. So, for example, a 14K gold from Italy is marked as 585; 18K gold is .7500, 10K is .4167, and so on.
