<p>[QUOTE="davidh, post: 512696, member: 15062"]Dental gold is difficult to accurately test. The usual gold used in dentistry is 40% gold, 25% platinum and/or palladium and 35% nickel and/or chromium. The platinum/palladium cobined with the gold gives a false reading when doing the usual jewelry shop test which usually shows more gold than is actually </p><p>present. This shouldn't matter to someone turning in scrap since you're getting paid for all of the precious metals contained in the scrap. However, if you're selling directly to a refiner they may give you a bit less because of the extra effort in separating out the other nobel metals.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
