The best place to find scrap gold is generally garage sales, Craigslist and sometimes Ebay. Look for gold jewelry that is stamped with 8K, 14K or some other number with a K, which means it is truly gold.
** Hint ,some older pieces are marked PB , a low quality called Plumb gold, but if it's less than a buck or two, still worth picking up. Also, this may be an antique, so if it's intact, and in good shape, may be worth an appraisal , or at least a little online investigating , especially if there is a designer logo or initials. 18K or 14KEP is Electroplate. Leave it.
