Careful analysis of the sun's spectrum shows that about 6 ten-billionths (0.0000000006) of the mass of the sun consists of atoms of gold.

Can you take gold and hold it under fire to prove that it is real?

It depends what you are relating it to. Real gold vs fools gold? Take a hammer, and bash the hell out of it, if it is not jewlery. If it is a nugget of real gold, it will smash flat. If fools gold, it will shatter into a million pieces. Also the sun test. If a piece of real gold is held in sunlight, it will be as brilliant as if a shadow is cast upon it. Other metals will dim, and become hard to see. (This works better, if the piece is small.

Are there Field tests for telling the difference between fools gold and real gold?

Real gold is extremely soft and malleable; therefore, real gold could be dented with little pressure. Fools gold (Iron Pyrite) is much harder, and therefore harder to dent. A practical method is to get the material wet, and hold it up in the sun. Gold and fools gold will both shine. Now put your hand between the material and the sun. The gold will still shine, but the fools gold will become quite dark. This is because the shine of gold comes from diffuse reflection (like light shining on paper), while fools gold's comes from specular reflection (like a mirror).
