<p>[QUOTE="mirana, post: 9708222, member: 79705"]If you're going to take it to a jeweler or pawn/gold buy to test the stone, they can probably test the gold for you too, so I'd wait to get the testers. It is nice to have if you'll be regularly going after unmarked (ie old) jewelry. The cheap diamond testers are like $30 and an acid kit is about the same. Usually the stores have presidium and sometimes XRF.</p><p><br /></p><p>If gold, I'd also say Blue Topaz is the most popular.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
