Why 24 karat Gold Instead of Silver For Jewelry

Why 24 karat Gold Instead of Silver.

It’s time to ruin a perfectly fine, mint condition American Silver Eagle!

After some research I found the best way to ruin silver is to...

Hard boil some eggs!

With lots of SSSTEEEM!

Hard boiling eggs is a bit of a process:

Ect.

We are using our eggs on...

A shiny ASE:

A 42% Not Gold ring ( 14k)

A 100% Not Gold ring ( chocolate)

A Menē 24 karat Gold ring

We cut the eggs in half and placed them on top of the candidates:

Wrap everything up:

Note the time:

I had no idea how long this would take. I thought I would leave the eggs over night and see what happened.

In about 15 minutes I started noticing a change! I held out for 1 full hour before taking the eggs off the candidates.

It was a little treacherous to navigate the kitchen at this time vs. an hour previous. Mrs. Goldmatters was making dinner and was slightly less on board with the experiment. I survived, but barely. The things I do for Steemit...

All the candidates turned out okay, even the chocolate.

All of them that is...except for the silver!

This is a bit of a heartbreaker to look at:

But we probably all knew how this would turn out:

Normally we don’t intentionally tarnish silver, and there is nothing wrong with owning silver (*In fact I acquired a very large position today!) , it just doesn’t have the special properties that gold has that make for the best jewelry. The silver started oxidizing within 15 minutes. Gold does not interact with oxygen and will never oxidize.

The Menē 24 karat gold ring was not effected at all from the experiment. The 24 karat gold did what does gold does. It just sits there, preserving your purchasing power, stable and inert. This is what you want from your gold jewelry, a true investment!
