Скачать или смотреть 14k Gold Ball Chain? They make those??? Jewelry Jar with Gold in it!

Good gold in this jewelry jar, pieces you might not think are gold found their way in here and it turned out GREAT for me! I hope you enjoy.

If you need to see markings, try out this cheap loupe like I show in the video. Works fine (generally, quality control isn't great), but at $7USD it can't be beat: https://amzn.to/4fWPjIy

We often employ a cheap magnet of a type you can find here if you need one: https://amzn.to/4hf65nd ($7USD at the time I am uploading this video)

The gold test kit I use is this one if you would like to get your own: https://amzn.to/4kugYnt

This video shows the unboxing and sorting of a jewelry jar purchased for $25. The host explains that these jars often contain broken or unsold jewelry from thrift shops (0:37-1:06).

Throughout the video, the host inspects various items, looking for hallmarks and testing them with a magnet and a loupe. Key finds and observations include:

Plastic vs. Real Pearls: The host demonstrates how to test pearls by rubbing them together to check for grit (2:31-2:50).
Scrimshaw Analysis: A piece thought to be scrimshaw is determined to be plastic based on its surface patterning (3:02-3:52).
Sterling Silver Finds: Several sterling silver pieces are identified, including a salmon pendant (4:02-4:16) and an earring (7:28-7:31). Another piece is marked 925 (8:08-8:11).
10K Gold Baby Ring: A small ring marked "10KP" is found, which the host believes stands for "10k plum" (meaning precisely 10 karat gold) rather than plated (12:11-12:29).
14K Gold Ball Chain: The most significant find is an Italian 14 karat gold ball chain, which the host initially wasn't expecting to be gold due to its common appearance (18:11-18:18, 25:05-25:23).
Silver Bracelet: A child's bracelet is identified as silver (22:37-22:40, 22:52-22:54).
At the end of the video, the host provides the final weights of the precious metals found:

Silver: 19 grams (23:19-23:26)
10K Gold: 0.6 grams (24:11-24:25)
14K Gold: 4.83 grams (24:33-24:38)
The host concludes that the jewelry jar was "utterly phenomenal" (18:43-18:45), especially considering the value of the gold found. He also mentions working with the thrift store to improve their sorting process to prevent valuable items from ending up in these jars (18:50-19:14).
