I have some gold that has turned black and I'm wondering if this means it's fake. I've heard that real gold doesn't change color, so I'm concerned that I may have been sold fake gold.

It is particularly suitable for high purity gold such as 24k bullion and raw gold nuggets.

In contrast, fake gold may undergo a color change, turning black or green.
