    Not sure what you mean by "solid". 18kt. is a gold alloy. Pure gold is 24kt.
    18kt is a common alloy for jewelry.

    Are you sure it is an "s" , not an "f". F means gold filled, much less valuable than 18kt.

    750 means it's 75% gold the other 25% is an alloy. 18kt means that the 75% that is gold, is 18 karat gold.
