Wearable gold breaks the “stack in the safe” mental model. It is easy to undervalue because you see it daily.
Logging it next to bullion gives a whole-picture metal view when you want it.
What to write down
Metal type, karat or purity, weight if known, and who appraised it (if anyone). Photos of stamps help.
StackerTracker supports jewellery-style assets alongside coins—use the form fields that match what you actually know.
Common questions
