Win a gold medal. It won’t tarnish.

The Olympic gold medals are only 6g of gold layered outside of silver.

@@bhgtree yes. The gold medals are plated on the outside with gold. Gold doesn’t tarnish. So, all one has to do is win a gold and wear it everywhere and it won’t tarnish. 6gm of gold for plating for that size of an object is quite substantial.
