Who knows how to spot gold?

There is one thing ... it looks exactly like gold, it does not darken, does not turn green ... There are some sure ways to determine whether it is gold or not. Do it yourself.

I heard about iodine ... should there be a reaction? If so, which one? Is there battery acid, should there be any reaction with gold?

What else can you check. The metal is soft, does not magnetize.
