Mark on gold ring , is it really gold?

Asked Mar 15, 2008, 12:04 PM — 3 Answers

I just bought a "gold" ring that was advertised as 10K gold but upon receipt I find that the mark is not exactly 10K. It has what looks to be a capital you with what looks to be an arrow passing horizontally through it from left to right, but the arrow tip is not visible, only the arrow "tail", It is then followed by 10.

Sounds like it's not even gold.

I would get it acid-checked by a reputable jeweler.
