T How to test gold: click here to see the videos. To read about various methods of testing gold click here to read the article Silver Single bottle in strong wooden box plus steel needle file, magnet and instructions. Tests for silver. A good choice if you deal only in silver and really have no use for gold testers. The reaction is clear and dramatic on Sterling silver (92.5% pure, ".925") and a keen eye can see an even stronger reaction on pure (.999) silver. On "low grade" silver the reaction is less pronounced, you can see a slight reaction on .800 or .750 silver.  9ct Single bottle in strong wooden box plus steel needle file, magnet and instructions. Will tell you if an item is not gold or if it is 9ct or if it is better than 9ct. If it is better than 9ct it WON'T tell you how much better (you will need the QUICKTEST-3 set instead). RESTRICTIONS RESTRICTIONS ON SALES Anyone over the age of 18 may buy acids for testing precious metals as part of their trade / business / profession. That includes organisations, large companies, small businesses, individual traders working from home, even collectors who trade by buying  and selling. If  none of the above apply, you will need an EPP license from the Home Office. This is because acids can be used for making explosives.
