How can you tell if a gold nugget is real?
The best way to ensure a gold nugget’s authenticity is to buy it directly from a reputable source with authenticity cards and documents. Authentic gold will have a softer touch to it. If you’re unsure, consult with your local jeweler or certified appraiser. On 1stDibs, you’ll find expertly vetted gold nugget jewelry.
