Don't worry. You're not alone if you answered no. In fact nobody out of our family and friends knows the difference between gold filled and gold plated.

Many high quality gold filled pieces actually look like solid gold. In order to actually be marked as Gold Filled or GF an item must actually be at least 1/10th gold.  Gold Plated Gold plated is actually the process of applying a thin layer of gold onto the surface of another metal which is often silver or copper.  This process is done through a chemical treatment.
