Antique Pocket Watches

What is the difference between solid gold and gold over sterling silver?

For example, I want to buy a chain that is solid gold but as it costs $ 1500 while I found the same chain, but it is about 14k sterling silver and it is like $ 500. Is it turning or what is the difference? Notice someone else? Besides, I would not wear it often.

solid (24 carats) is metal re. Now 14carat nearly half is silver, copper or other metals to make it strong enough to be practical. Gilding rub off (not you). If your gold is not at least 18 k, you might as well wear costume jewelry (my opinion)
