Know your jewelry: It is critical to know the real value of your gold if you want to sell it. You must have noticed some numbers and alphabet imprinted on your jewelry. This is known as stamping and is a standard practice that is used by jewelers since 1900. Jewelers stamp all the jewelry that specifies the quality of the item.
