Could be anywhere from zero to a little more than a gram per pound.
In the case of enameled or faux gold jewelry, the 'plating' is simply a layer of golden colored resin that makes the item appear to be golden. For higher yielding stuff you would expect to see nice buttery yellow pieces.
Most costume jewelry runs around 1/4 to 1/2 gram per pound average on a good day.
I'm interested in the scrap by the pound.
PM sent.
