Copper Cored Torque Bangles
As the gold price continues to remain at a high, the industry becomes more attractive
to scammers.
The latest manifestation of this seems to be in very professional production of
torque bangles (particularly in 18ct) that have a thick gold outer sleeve, filled
with a cooper rod to make the weight heavy.
There are lots of these about at the moment and you really do need to cut deep into
them before the acid test picks up the copper. Once again, be careful with these
as they can be very hard to spot due to the highly professional manufacture.
