路Gold melts at a much lower temperature than steel. Just heat it up so the gold melts and the steel doesn't, and pour the gold out.

Loose medallions are like the proverbial hen鈥檚 teeth.
Non-precious metal copies do pop up now and then but aren鈥檛 especially good.
You are more likely to find a loose caseback but if you do find one for sale make sure it is from the same manufacturer and era as your watch, as otherwise it may not fit your midcase.
