Some jewelry is gold plated over silver.. the reason being some people are allergic to silver I was told by a jewelrer.
I have such a piece… it is gold, but marked .925.
Since your piece is marked .925, it could be gold plated over silver.
Hard to tell by the photos.

Wouldn't being under water for a few years turn gold plated silver black?
I used a microfiber cloth to wipe some of the tarnish off.

All of my jewelry is either gold or silver. I don't have a sample to test.

Probably not as long as the plating stayed on it.

I have access to a rock shop that does jewelry as well. As long as I’m not in there every day the guy will check and not charge me anything. He get fascinated by some of the rings I bring in so he just does it. Takes him less than five minutes and he has better equipment than I do.
