* Karat Gold
Americans usually use the word karat instead of carat when referring to gold fineness (but carat when referring to diamond weight!). Because US manufacturers are legally allowed a ¹/₂ half carat tolerance, most U.S. scarp gold should be treated as 0.5 carst less than its declared standard.

Plumb Gold
The exception to US karat gold being subject to a tolerance is what is usually referred to as "plumb" gold. The denotes it as being exact, and not subject to tolerance, so 10kt "plumb gold really is (or should be) 10 carats. The word plumb in this context probably comes from plumb line meaning straight or precise. Its use is slightly amusing as plumb comes from the Latin plumbum meaning lead, the last thing one wants in a gold alloy.
