‘916 gold’ is the same as the 22-karat gold!
The number ‘916’ denotes the purity of gold in the final product.
In other words, there are 91.6 grams of pure gold in 100-gram alloy.
Figure 916 is basically 22/24 (22 karats by 24 karats).
Similarly, ‘958’gold is 23 carats (23/24) and 750 gold is 18 carats (18/24).
