If you don't have nitric acid or gold testing materials, then take it to a jeweler. Testing with nitirc acid - you have to know what you are looking for, hard to explain over the net (take it to a jeweler please!).

(or I can do it.... )

Battara is correct:- its a jeweller's job.

Suasa is essentially a low gold content alloy.
