Solid gold won't do anything other look like gold for thousands of years. If you have plated anything, once that super thin .05mm layer of gold is off (either by rubbing against skin over long periods of time or from scratches or whatever) You get the metal under it exposed to elements. Solid gold has no plating so.... just always go pure gold whether it's hallow, semi solid or Solid, pure gold and only gold is always better IMO. No worries on ur gold when all ur gold is mixed with is other pure gold (10k - 24k)
@1965kid11 ай бұрын
