think you use a ceramic type pot and heat the underside of it till the gold melts...

 

but not your mums dinner bowls

 

Just weigh it in, as you'll only lose some weight ( therefore value ) when you melt it down

Unless you're planning on actually making something yourself?

Ps is it all the same purity?
